Early Christmas Gifts

Filed under: personal — kat @ 11:42 am

I’m about to head off to the snowy land of Upstate NY for Christmas.  But before I do that, I’ll leave you with one last post to tide you over into the new year.  Being one of a family of six kids, Christmas has the potential of being quite daunting.  Long ago my siblings and I decided to start a “secret santa” tradition; we’d pick names out of a hat and we’d only have to buy gifts for one person, instead of five.  It makes things a lot easier (and less expensive.)  My sister Liz is apparently my secret santa this year, which is great, because Liz gives good gifts.

A while ago my friend Sadie mentioned this book on her weblog. So I put it on my Amazon wishlist.  Liz got it for me!  Thanks Liz!  She also got me the board game Cranium! That should be very useful on New Year’s Eve.  I’m not the type of person who prefers to go out to bars or crazy nightclubs on New Year’s Eve.  I prefer to get together with a few friends and hang out at someone’s house and drink and talk and maybe play some games.  Should be good.  Have a wonderful holiday everybody!

Kath-a-rine, not Kath-e-rine

If you’re looking for the Katherine Evans who is suing her principal over the violation of her First Amendment rights, you are looking in the wrong place.

For the rest of my readers, hi!  Sorry I haven’t posted in a while.  I’ve been very busy.  Not much progress in the personal artwork department.  I have been making some progress in the knitting department, and hopefully will have something to post soon.  But what can I say?  Work’s been crazy, and getting ready for Christmas has been even crazier.  All of my personal time has been spent shopping, baking cookies intended to give to others, eating a good quantity of said cookies myself, sending Christmas cards, wrapping presents, and other assorted stuff.

You’ll have to wait until after Christmas for some interesting posts from me.  And don’t get all upset.  You have better things to do with your time than lament over what I have or have not written on my blog.
