Danielle and Winter Solstice

In the hurry and scurry of the holidays, I received this greeting today from Travels with Danielle. Go read a little about Danielle. I'll wait...

How cool, huh? Danielle is going to make her way to our house sometime next year and I'm excited. I'll make up the guest bed for her so I'm ready when she arrives. I wonder if she's a vegetarian? Oh, the fun we'll have getting to know each other. I sure hope Buttons likes her. Otherwise, she'll be spending an awful lot of time in the guest room and the trunk of the car.

On another note, I'd like to wish you all a happy Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. The days around the holidays do seem to be particularly short. Not. Enough. Time. And guess what? I'm sick. Time to slooowwww down. So, I'm missing choir and knitting tonight. And I'm not even going to make cookies. Oh, maybe cookies. I must have cut-outs for Christmas!

I hope to post again before Christmas, but family is coming and my house doesn't magically clean itself yet, although I do have a very sweet husband who does more than his share. I'm off to drink some Gypsy Cold Tea. (Yeah, isn't that a great name for echinacea tea?)
