Scott was Xboxing it, I was watching Mad Men...season 1's finale...so I had no idea it was even 2009 until right before going to sleep. Mad Men rocks.<BR/><BR/>I was awkae at midnight...watching Man Men and all that fabulous smoking and drinking (at the office!) and matte, red lipstick and fabulous fashion and dapper men who wear hats. Sigh...<BR/><BR/>I am most looking forward to Lost's return...and BSG's...and Joss Whedon's new show, "Dollhouse." And in real life? The new Star Trek movie...Ida-Ho...losing lots of weight...and a better New Moon. Amen.<BR/><BR/>Favorite thing in '08? Meeting bloggy pals, for sure. And getting a tattoo. And a liberator. Ahem.<BR/><BR/>Christmas is GONE. No traces left around these parts. Praise God.<BR/><BR/>I do not make resolutions...I make revolutions...<BR/><BR/>I resolve NOT to stay at my current weight in 2009. It's my year of fabulousness. <BR/><BR/>I am organized...some times...some days. But our basement is a nightmare. Wanna come help us clean it? You did such a good job with yours.<BR/><BR/>Flannel sheets. Any color, any pattern, any kind. Good times.Lula!https://www.blogger.com/profile/18341753113164178323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-37824760529115987612009-01-04T11:05:00.001-05:002009-01-04T11:05:00.001-05:00I am going to post on my blog about your contests....I am going to post on my blog about your contests...AnnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-31479497887431766532009-01-04T11:05:00.000-05:002009-01-04T11:05:00.000-05:00My favorite thing,I wish I could win is the awesom...My favorite thing,I wish I could win is the awesome scrapbook stuff.We can never-have enough,can we?...AnnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-85716840504474314062009-01-04T11:04:00.000-05:002009-01-04T11:04:00.000-05:00I am now a follower...AnnI am now a follower...AnnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-26363178543179627662009-01-04T11:02:00.000-05:002009-01-04T11:02:00.000-05:00I'm not sure I posted my other comments on the rig...I'm not sure I posted my other comments on the right post,so i'm going to post them again...I have won one prize.A lovely nativity plate.It was awesome.I sang it to the hills.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-52685080167164956022009-01-04T00:21:00.000-05:002009-01-04T00:21:00.000-05:00I put on my comfy sweat & tee and planted my b...I put on my comfy sweat & tee and planted my booty on our couch with my man. <BR/><BR/>Baked a chocolate cake & cinnamon rolls and watched Ryan Secrest. <BR/><BR/>Wide awake! <BR/><BR/>My little sister's wedding! <BR/><BR/>Went to Vegas with my man for our 16th anniversary. <BR/><BR/>My tree is down, little knick knacks put away BUT our outside holiday lights will be up until next weekend. <BR/><BR/>No resolutions although I would like to eat healthier and lose a few before the wedding!Aubreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317389855681798096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692904496256051846.post-11701578703909431192009-01-03T10:41:00.000-05:002009-01-03T10:41:00.000-05:00Stay in or go out on New Year's?

We always go to our friends' house to do this. <BR/><BR/>Either way...what did you do? See above<BR/><BR/>Were you awake at midnight? Heck, yeah!<BR/><BR/>What are you most looking forward to in 2009? Winning the lottery....seriously, getting a better job. <BR/><BR/>Favorite thing you did in 2008? Oh, I don't know. I guess getting to know all you wonderful bloggers. <BR/><BR/>Are your Christmas decorations still up? Or already packed away? They're down and packed away. <BR/><BR/>Do you make New Year's resolutions? Nope.<BR/><BR/>Shannon asked this great question this week - what do you resolve to NOT do in 2009? I resolve not to worry as much. <BR/><BR/>So many people resolve to get organized. What would be the first project you would tackle? Nothing really. I'm pretty organized.<BR/><BR/>White sales are the big thing in January. (Do you know why?) Tell me about your favorite set of sheets. Eh, sheets are just sheets.

I had to console my husband over his beloved Georgia Tech getting trounced.<BR/><BR/>Ummm...we are cruising again the first week of February. Going to Chicago in July. Meeting more bloggers.<BR/><BR/>Start blogging. Cruise last April. Summer at the beach. Week with Cindy Sue in Texas. <BR/><BR/>All evidence of decorations packed into the attic. We didn't have out that much...but it all came from several different boxes. It made it more difficult to pack back up again.<BR/><BR/>Never.<BR/><BR/>to gain more weight<BR/><BR/>My closet. And the kids closets. There is another consignment sale coming up...I need to get prepared.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Gina for looking up why we have white sales. My favorite sheets are clean ones. And my favorite clean ones are my 400 thread count red ones. I have a pair of 600 count and they are too slippery.Keys to the Magic Travelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15634829064005032831noreply@blogger.com
