cool beans.

New Years was quiet for us....just the way I like it. Ate a nice dinner which included black eyed peas, an ode to my Georgian grandmother. It's suppose to bring you good luck for the year. Watched the cheesiest of cheesy movies and that was HotRod. Wouldn't recommend it. It was crap after watching Superbad umpteen times. Close to midnight, we bundled up to watch the fireworks from our deck. It's really the only time of year we can actually enjoy them since the sun's not out until 2 in the morning.
I spent the first day of the year in bed with the sickies. J kindly passed on his coughing nastiness to moi and now I'm nursing chloraseptic drops which, in my opinion kick Halls bootie. I did manage to get a little scrapping in. I liked Elsie's challenge on how you've evolved in 2007. I personally didn't have any dramatic life changing events but a good learning year.

I'm also jumping the Blogger ship soon. I'll have a Typepad blog up shortly....just trying to figure out banners and what not. Hopefully by my next post, I'll be up and running there and maybe spill a little guest DT news ;)
One last thing, my Christmas tree is STILL UP. Yes I am lame....and a little lazy. Ok, a lot lazy.

I liked how your page for Elsie's challenge turned out. The journaling especially, so sincere.

In Brazil (I don't know if only here) we're supposed to take the tree down only on Jan 6th - three King's day - so in my view, you're early! :)

Happy new years!
