december ketchup or catsup (again)

I know I'm behind - again - and the awesome post I was going to do about yesterday's December delight is going to have to be postponed because I forgot my camera cord to upload the pictures. I'm sure no one is waiting with baited breath so it should be okay.

Keeping up with this delightful December . . . here goes:

Thursday - we had a holiday swim in the Gold's Gym pool (we probably contracted some disease but I have faith that there is enough chlorine in that thing to kill just about anything). We are working on becoming better swimmers - so we thought this would be a fun thing to do. If we're honest about it . . . it was just alright.

Friday - my office staff Christmas party. White elephant gifts with a bunch of 20 year olds - and Greg wore his Santa hat the whole time and looked utterly ridiculous. I think I lost a lot of respect. A lot.

Saturday - we went to see 500 days of Summer - which is technically not a Christmas film but in this cold weather it was nice to be reminded about Summer - except it was nothing about the season.

Sunday - this was a double dipper - First, the workhorse hosted her "favorite things" for her daughters. Let me tell you this . . . I left with a boatload of new items to try out and see if they become my favorite things. It's pretty awesome. We followed this up with "Christmas in the Grove" a Christmas concert starring Greg's mom. Alright, she was just in the choir - but it was good - and very festive of us.

Kitty, you are wrong. We are all waiting with baited breath and we really need to know what you gave and what you got as a white elephant gift. Also, what are your mom's favorite things this year? I think you need to have me start editing your posts before you post them, becuase you are leaving a lot of holes in them and that leaves your readers wondering "what the freak?!?"

Oh Toddcat - there were so many favorite things this year I really can't even begin to list them all. Hopefully my mom will check out this post and start listing them (pretty please?)

You win the award of most comments on our blog! About Jersey Shore, I only watched half an episode but I can testify from life experience that it is reality. Watch at your own risk and wear protection when you do!

A holiday swim is really stretching it don't you think? I am proud of you for swimming though--I just don't have the energy to try to improve in that area.
