6182

With the Christmas rush over, all the cooking, baking, cleaning, decorating, shopping, wrapping finally at it's end the time has come to sit back and relax! Don't you agree? So.....my free time (you know, the time I should be spending reading a good book, putting away new gift items, laundry that doesn't stop just because Christmas is past, etc.) has been spent playing Freecell. I felt like being a vegetable and Freecell doesn't require much movement so I thougth it would be a good lazy game to play. I don't play often but usually when I sit down I can win a few games in 30 minutes or so then I move along to something else. I was doing fairly well until.......6182. I started this game on Thursday at about 10:00 p.m. or so. Lost about 8 or 9 times, maybe more (kept playing the same game over and over determined to beat it). I thought I needed to step away from it for a while so I went to bed. Didn't get to play until the next night. Called that blasted game # 6182 back up and proceeded to lose again and again. Got some help from Andrew. We sat together for about, oh maybe 45 minutes, lost a few more times. Ate dinner and went back to the game. Again we couldn't beat it. Called the master player (my dad). Told him about how angry I was getting cuz I couldn't win the game. Says he was in the middle of something and would boot it up and try it when he was done. Of course he calls me hours later, at about 10:30 or 11:00 p.m. to say he beat it. grrrrrr!!!! That was last night. Andrew sat for a while today trying to figure it out. Couldn't do it. Took a break to watch a movie. While he was watching the movie I FINALLY WON THE GAME!!!!! I played it over and over and over and over and over. I figure I have to play it about 15 more times to make up for all the times I lost. :) Yes for 3 days we were obsessed with 6182. If you are into Freecell or just like a challenge, give it a try. If you are a hot shot and beat it in 15 minutes or less, Do Not Tell Me About It. I might have to bop you one :)!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Slackers!!!

I have been very busy with Christmas just around the corner. Every attempt at making a new posting is preempted by some other unspeakable activity. You know: baking, shopping, dusting and vacuuming in order to do your Christmas decorating, studying music, practicing music, wrapping, most importantly.....sleeping. If I attempt a posting at night when my brain is fried I just sit and stare at the screen. So while I am recouping let me just say.....I bought a car today :) HA!!!!!! I got a car!!! The tag says it is Maroon but it is more like berry. It is a 2001 (I was hoping for something newer than 5 years but the price was right) and it has all the toys or at least all the toys a 2001 can have. I am very excited about it considering my car is in need of a few things like tires and HEAT. It has the shakes and puffs smoke at an uncontrolled rate. At some point I will post a picture but right now holiday activities are calling. In the mean time, please visit this interactive e-card and

Merry Christmas Everyone!

No Jesus - No Christmas!

What is a purse without it's contents or a book without it's print?

Who is Cinderella without her Fairy Godmother?

Or a bride without her Groom?

How about an Elvis concert without Elvis?

Can you celebrate without the guest of honor?

What are our politicians, law makers,politically correct supports, etc. thinking?

The Holiday Is ..... CHRISTMAS!!!

Lets not forget the real spirit of Christmas.

If there were no Jesus, there would be no Christmas.
