What I have been Up to:

1. Dishes, dishes, dishes.

2. Avoiding Christmas songs on the radio.

3. Giving people the gift of listening. It's a rarer gift than I thought.

4. Obsessing over this web-site: http://www.shopterrain.com/

11. Planning a Settlers of Catan game night. Erik is in charge of snacks!

12. Buttoning my shirts to the top button.
