this year bobby & i got car tires for christmas. i know, i know, that tops everyone's wish list.
i wasn't a very good sport at first (yes, i cried) and then i gave myself a series of lectures about the spirit of the season etc. etc. and decided that my poor sport self better do something about it.
thus unfolded our december. i knew i wasn't going to be able to buy much for bobby, so instead, i wanted to make every day in december just a little bit of christmas.

the drive to oregon was supposed to happen tuesday, but with a big storm about to blow in, and me not so much loving snow storms across nevada, we up and took off sunday morning. the more christmas the merrier right?
i felt like we were on the mystery route, surrounded by dense fog in the dark of the morning.
every once in a while, we'd ascend above the frozen tundra and see the beautiful day.
and then descend again...the subie handled it well...
and then there were cows,
and stinson-faces,
and frozen lakes of the woods with impending rain storms, a sure sign we were being greeted by oregon.
alas, i have no pictures of the driving rain on the dark windshield, but i can tell you that we are here, and enjoying this non-white christmas.
besides, who can complain when i'm lying on a bed looking at this:

i should remember when asking excellent cooks for recipes, to not only include ingredients, but detailed instructions, like, " be patient, you may be stirring for more than a half hour"
or, "be prepared to wrap those caramels for the better part of a movie or two!"but alas, they were quite delightful to package up.
and deliver to friends.
and hopefully they even tasted good!

does anyone else have their moments, when they do something they really know better and think it won't be a big deal this time?
i threw some new maternity jeans into the wash with some brights, darks, and *gasp a couple whites. i know, i know. what was i thinking? possibly that i was grouchy? and just wanted everything washed at the same time? especially since we have to give the dryer 4-5 rounds- not exaggerating here people- to dry a single load?
i admit it. i did it. and now i will pay the price. bad- can i repeat bad light blue dye job going on right now.
i have precious few fitting clothes, did i really have to learn this lesson right now? and on one of bobby's favorite, and cutest (strike that- most attractive) shirts?
lesson learned, let's hope. excuse me, i have buckets to attend too...
