Christmas passing

So, it's all gone by too fast. It's amazing how 4 days of work compared to 4 days of vacation can be vastly different in time. Lute and I got into Duncan late Monday night after working all day. Tuesday was fun, we and the family spent the day in OKC shopping, shopping, shopping - since I had done absolutely nothing regarding Christmas gifts until then. While in the big city we were able to meet up with Lute's sister and my cousins at Ted's to eat some mean Mexican food. Ted's...how I love thee...that could be a blog posting of its own! So, all was fine and dandy until about 5:00 Wednesday morning when I woke up hugging the toilet bowl. Yes, all day I was running to the bathroom reliving my Ted's experience. Christmas Eve didn't really exist for me this year. All that it involved was puking and sleeping. Fun. Christmas day however was great. I think it's funny how you begin to appreciate different things about Christmas than when you were a kid. It use to be about the presents, comparing gifts with the cousins, eating until you popped and taking long and lazy naps. Now, I could do without the gifts and my body could really do without the food. Today was about family and thanking God for another year with my amazing people. I think my greatest gift this year was being able to come home and see each person that I loved, not all are healthy, but all were present and I was able to hug them, kiss them and we were all able to share our love - the greatest gift any of use could give or receive.

I Can't Stay Away....

Ok, so the blog was suppose to be deleted and forever forgotten about - but I just can't stay away! For job security purposes, I can't tell you why and what happened to my original blog. Just know that I am back and hope to write often.
Here are some pics from the old blog to keep you entertained until I can write more later.
