The last 2 weeks are a blurr.

 Learning to use the Christmas presents I know how to use the money, it's the Mac that taking me some time getting used to.  Thanks to Bliss and the Capt. I'm doing better
 New favorite wine, given to me by Jeffrey.  Name: Educated Guess Cabernet, $20 at Whole Foods - $18 at Market Street.  But well worth it.  I will be giving this as a gift when I need that special gift to give a wine drinker. 

 A close runner up and one of the better Texas wines I've ever had, Texas Hold'em, Cabernet.  $9 at Market Street.
Gracie is 7 months old now, no longer a wanton hussy, vaccinated against all those yucky cat things, still mean as Hell and outgrowing her bed.
We had snow, 4 inches before it was all over with.  "We could see some light drizzle and a few snow flurries, but no real accumulations."  Even the weather guys were admitting that they missed this one. 


 Did a lot of baking.  Made 2 Pammie Cakes!  Jody says we shouldn't go 2 weeks without Pammie Cake.  I also found the perfect Chocolate Chip cookie recipe.  They don't get hard, well they don't last that long at our house.

Gracie learned to re-string a guitar while balancing on Jody's leg.


Other than that, there's been lots of knitting, lots of work, and a little bit of play.

It's pretty nice, quiet a surprise as my other laptop was barely 2 years old.

You want her, you can have her. I'll put her in a box with some cat food and ship her to you! This cat is a Bitch. I thought getting her fixed would calm her down. She's horrible! I have scratches and bites all over my arms and hands. Jody has gaping scratches where she leaps off the scratching posts/station and onto his leg as he's walking by. When she does this she has to dig in with her claws to make it. Besides the wounds it almost gives him a heart attack when she does it.
