Holidays

Today was alright...we went over to Jerry's parents to have dinner. We took a smoked turkey from Honeybaked Ham store and a small mini ham. They were wonderful!!

This is the start of a season that really doesn't make me happy I get tired of the commercialism and the "What do I get out of it" attitude. I guess I'm more interested in visiting and just spending time with people in a casual atmosphere. I don't need anyone to go to any great lengths and although I love getting gifts I really don't need anything. So with that said...Happy Holidays..

Now for the obligatory "What I'm thankful for" list.

  • Jerry - My rock, My love, my best friend, my straight man, my caretaker...Thank you! I love you! ♥

  • Tabitha - My surrogate child. Thank you for being the cat that knows just what I need.

  • My Mom and Dad - I love them, they are possibly the coolest parents a girl could have. Did I mention we are cruising again the upcoming spring break?

  • My family - For shaping me into the person I am. I miss you all, especially during the holidays.
  • My Health - It's not perfect but I'm thankful for it.

  • My Friends - they make me laugh when I need it, give me a boost when I'm doubtful. Thank you guys!

  • My Country - The only place that allows people to be whatever they want and not be persecuted. (I know there are exceptions but that is the main idea)

I am a HUGE fan of the new Battlestar Galatica (BSG). Sad to hear that they are coming to an end next year. Does it mean they get to Earth? Are the Cylons defeated? Or do they find a peaceful way to co-exist with the Cylons? OR...are they going to leave it in cliff hangers for future movies? Thank goodness for DVD's so that I can always get my BSG fix!

Independence Day!

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence. When reading the text it's difficult not to see how history repeats itself. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate, that Governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath s...

Hi-Tech Bed

So our Select Comfort Bed arrived today. So far so good. Although I think we are losing air (it's not staying at 100 after I fill). Not sure though. Tonight will be the real test. I think my sleep number is 35. When trying it out both in the store and at home that is where I'm not feeling any pressure on my hips or shoulders. Jerry thinks his number is around there too. I'm really hoping this will help with Jerry's back, shoulder, neck pains. He is so much better but he occasionally gets flare ups. No fun Oh yea...and the controller is Wireless. We can be gadget whores in our sleep too!
