    Well, it's fitting that 12/12/12 happened on a Wednesday...it seems this week we've had a few jumpers, is that bad?  Still have 2 1/2 weeks to Christmas and is everybody else stressing as badly as I am?

    Bitch:  an old boyfriend from when I was 18/19 has resurfaced, like a bad penny.

    Brag:  an old boyfriend from when I was 18/19 has resurfaced, and since most of you know how old I am, you can do the math.  I guess I'm flattered?
    And bedtime has been a wonderful dream around here!  It's SO nice to, hopefully, have WWW III behind us!

    Bitch: DD5 was caught stealing chocolates out of a gift basket under the tree. She seemed really remorseful (they had melted in the pocket of her favorite skinny jeans and she seemed to feel that was karma) so we let her off easy. Next day, caught her again. I made her take chocolates out of her stocking to replace the ones she'd eaten.
    Brag: She was fucking adorable in her Christmas program today at school. She was also the best dressed little cutie there :)

    Brag: My docs office just called, my knee X-ray is normal so it's just some swelling. An appt has been made for cortisone injections in my knee and hip; my iron is low so I am being put on meds and my B12 is low so I have an appt later today for a B12 injection (never had one before). I might just get back to 'normal' soon ...

    “There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”

    Brag...totally saved his ass, and actually got a sincere compliment, and heartfelt thank you. I found a basket in the attic and some tissue paper and made him a gift basket with salt and sugar scrubs, mini pumpkin bread loaves with cream cheese glaze, Hot sauce, small glycerine holiday soaps, and chocolate rose cupcakes. I will consider all that shit free advertising.
