I went out of town this afternoon to celebrate Christmas with part of my family. It was so nice to see everyone again. I feel especially blessed that, even after my mother died, my step family is still my family. Little Allison was so excited to have everyone there and she sure wanted to pass [...]

Okay, granted I spent most of the day in the windowless stockroom, then in the windowless office, but was there some kind of wild event going on that I knew nothing about?
