Bah whatever...

Kyra commented tonight that she was worried that she wasn't looking forward to Christmas this year, which was sad to her because it's her favorite. Not sure if it's the snow-bound thing or being isolated from friends or the duplicate gift her dad got her for her birthday (she cried about feeling bad that her dad did that, too--we are so heading into the land of hormones here!) Anyway, I concur. Not sure if it's depression due to unemployment or the economy or being snow-bound here and able to only buy stuff online, but I am so over the holidays. We aren't even sure any of us will be mobile enough to celebrate together with other family.

One possible cool thing: I designed a tee shirt for Jason based on his martini recipe. I'll post a picture if it turns out nice. I uploaded my design to a website and got to choose what to put it on. Very cool... Hopefully my martini glass doesn't look cheesy. My olive is very cool looking.

Here's how the whole "weight loss" thing has been going since being home.

I made brownies, a banana layer cake with cream cheese frosting, cream of broccoli soup (with 1% milk, no cream), and tonight a whole wheat veggie lasagna.

I tried my new Bollyarobics DVD. It was.... weird, and I ended up pulling something in my back. Didn't feel like taking a walk, probably because hardly anything is open. Tomorrow we have Kyra's appointment to get braces, so we'll take the bus and do some shopping downtown. That will be a good walk.

banana nut spice cake with 7 minute frosting is the only way to go. My mother told me it is onlly for special girls on their birthday and is still what I want for mine the most.
A friend sent me an e-mail with some web sites on it I found very relaxing and imaginative. ( makes me wonder how she does them.) I figure it out I will send them to you very neat and thoughtfull.
Winter also pass's and will leave some trace that your will find yourself charishing later in life.
