We are getting a bit of snow to welcome in the new year today. It is a pretty snow, but I don't think we'll get much accumulation, and the temps are well below freezing. I think it's 20° right now with a wind chill of 7°. Thomas goes back to work tomorrow, but Andrew doesn't have to go back to school until next Monday. Eler Beth, however, will have lessons tomorrow.
Where have I been lately? Oh, I've been around. I can't support reading, commenting, or writing much in December, but I have skimmed entries almost daily to keep up with everyone. I was saddened to learn of Lahoma's and Kim's passing, and gave my condolences to their families. I made a comment here or there where I thought it necessary to comment right away instead of waiting. But now I plan to really catch up with everyone, and I have several entries planned for my own journal.
We had my sister in from Florida last week. She flew in on Christmas Eve and left this past weekend. Her divorce is final now, and I think she really needed to get up here to see Mom and just relax for a while. We also had the opportunity to see some friends that we hadn't seen in several months.
Things are getting back to normal. The kids have been busy with new games and several parties and get-togethers, so I've actually had some time in the past few days to do some REAL writing (you know, as opposed to journal writing :). The deer total for the year is seven -- four for Thomas and three for Eler Beth.
I hope everyone had a great January 1st!

I am praying that your family has a wonderful 2008! You certainly made an impact on my 2007...
now if I could just remember that whole 'then' and 'than' thing...I tried so hard to get it right after you took the time to explain it to me! lol I am just NOT gifted in the grammer department.
Blessings to you-
