finally....

thank goodness you're finally on, Katie...I was worried not to have an urban dweller on our blog...you keep us real...connect us to the "other world"...and make me appreciate Tulsa...not that I don't love your town....but it makes me think of the tee-shirt we bought once with the cow on it and the caption: I've seen NY ...now take me home.

Remember when you collected cows???? Thank God that phase passed...........in the meantime, I was thinking last night about you and how you will manage now that the strike is a reality...Baga said that you were going to Jordan's...what a good idea...handly placement of a boyfriend is what I call that...

Now for the final comment...Annapolis looks great, especially with you in it, but I'm pretty bummed I haven't posted a picture yet....got to work on that..... you girls are smarties........

I can't wait till we are all together for Christmas....call me a crazy romantic, but I have a vision of all of us around the fire laughing and talking and throwing paper around...and helping Will get over his jet-lag...just like the old days with dad.............he was always off selling something up until Christmas...and we welcomed him home and saw the silly little smile on his face that made all the preparations worthwhile..........is Will a reincarnation of Tom??? Seems more like it every day.......................whatcha think?

What I love about you both is that it is just a week or so before Christmas and you're still sending Christmas gift lists...you are the eternal optimists....but, how nice that you know that I haven't started my Christmas shopping.....and, how did you know???????????
