Again came home tonight to find a treat and treasure on my door step and the cutest little rhyme-

Thank you secret friend and Santa...... I am looking forward to more.

the First Day of Christmas.... a secret santa gave to me

a loaf of homemade bread and a verse to keep me guessing.


this is the cutest and nicest thing I have gotten in a long time. and to have it show up anon. is pretty sweet too.

So I told Steven I am going to blog this for sure, came right downstairs and took these photos of my cute package.....

SO THANK YOU SECRET SANTA (NEIGHBOR OR FRIEND)

our christmas party - work

We went to Carmine on Penn- an italian eatery where we were served family style. The 4 guys and I had a great time, I drank too much Chianti and ate too much but it was wonderful.

A couple of years ago my boss wanted to only do staff and not anyone else to our parties- I am o.k. with this because we often talk about work and we don't know each others spouses too well sometimes. So we go by ourselves and don't take our other halfs. This fact makes Steven crazy! but in the end I think it is good.... he doesn't have to make small talk to other spouses he dosen't even know. They guys had a good time too.

we started with a ceasar salad and a portbello mushroom dish with tomatoes and onions, as an appitizer, mmmm good. we went on to two main dishes , one veal and one with penne and chicken and threes dessert-ah wonderful

shiny shiny has some cool new gadgets for girls!

new PDA for girlies

Why am I ? Me?

I have such a naive nature and a forgiving heart. I don't look for the bad, I would rather forgive ( not forget) - bygones should be left as bygones. Life is too short not to have fun and love others with an unconditional nature and heart.

I want all the good things life has to offer and I want loving relationships in my life, I want to continue to talk to others and give of myself where and when I can. I wish I came from a more " normal family" and that there weren't so many secrets and things that my family didn't want to talk about. skelotons in the closet have started to fall out and it is good to know that the bones can see the light of day. I wish I could be a little more steely and more backbone to stand up and ask the right questions and get some answers even if it hurts. My mom and dad are not getting any younger and we will lose that library soon - I want more history than I am getting....
