Facebook

Never thought I'd say this...Facebook is fun!! Yup, me on a social networking site. But, I have connected with so many people from high school, camp, family...you name it and folks are coming out of the woodwork. You should look into it....really!!

Pop vs. Soda

I don't think a day goes by when the debate of pop vs. soda comes up for me. Being from Michigan, it is Pop. Living in St. Louis means people have no idea what I'm talking about. A gal I work with is from Chicago, which gives me some back-up... This is a cool map that Steve found when this very subject came up at his office... Stunning how something so mundane can be so fascinating to so many!!

This link to a map is more amazing that people study this stuff!!

Happy New Year

It is January, and we are getting our daylight back, 1 or 2 minutes a day. I'm noticing it, not pitch black when we go to piano lessons, the sun not directly in my eyes as I drive to work. Little things. January in St. Louis, it can be 50 one day, and 20 the next. No snow either, which really makes it depressing....just a little snow to play in would be nice for Travis.

So we keep on working and doing our thing, nothing exciting that's for sure. Starting to work on the taxes, want to get those done as soon as possible. Thanks to Quicken and Turbo Tax, I can do that. All I need is our W-2's and our interest statements, and I'm done!

Strange thing is that I need to start getting summer camps lined up! In January..yes. Registration begins tomorrow for Travis' favorite summer camp, and for him to get the classes he wants, I need to be on the ball!

The only thing worse than January is February...that is the dreariest month of them all, good thing it is short!

More later when something happens!!
