So far the new year's resolution is not going so well. I am trying to get to work on time. I am supposed to start at 8:00. No one really cares when I get there but I just can't believe that I'm always late. I'll try to get up 5 minutes earlier tomorrow.

Practicing with our new Tupperware can opener. It really is pretty easy to use, once you get the hang of it & so cool and safe that we're going out of our way to eat canned food, just so we can use it. The other day, Annie & I went to open a can of pineapple & were disappointed to find out it had an easy-open pop-top.

The outside of Allison's dorm at night. I went there to bring her some things that she forgot when she moved back in yesterday.

Thank you notes that I had the kids do today, to send to an Aunt of Jim's who lives far away & who sent them a very generous gift for Christmas. Now, I've got to add a letter myself & mail them off tomorrow.

I tried to sort out some paperwork today...but, I didn't get very much done. Whenever I clean up the house for a holiday (or because people are coming over) I toss everything into this laundry basket. It usually sits in there for a long time and generally becomes garbage because all of the dates have passed (on the coupons or events)

As we undecorated the tree, today, we decided to keep all of our 'Clint Ornaments' in one place, together. We ended up using the nice box that one of our Christmas gifts came in. It's perfect for them!

Henry (cat on right) is getting really old. He's got to be about 18 years old, now. He's always been relatively curmudgeonly. He finds a favorite spot & sticks to it for months at a time. Lately, it's been on top of the puppy crate in the kitchen. And, just recently, he's started letting Extra (cat on the left) share the space with him. They are adorable, all cuddled up like that. And, whether she's doing it because she wants the space or because she wants to sweetly cuddle with the old man, it's still nice to see.

Dinner at Red Lobster to start the night out. Then we went over to Donna's house for a drink. And, then headed to our friends house to finish out the night.
