I am always on the computer since I am online most days, but I have dropped the ball, yet again, with this whole blog-thing. Jesus! Okay, so the holiday’s are LONG over and we are moving on, never hearing “happy new year” until next January. lol. We had a few cold days after a very warm December, and then it turned back to a warm 60 for a couple days before a wind storm blew through last night with 40 degree temps. Yesterday I was in a tank and today I had a stocking cap, ear muffs, gloves and two sweatshirts. It is freezing compared to yesterday! Wednesday we started…

G’bye 2015 and hello to the new year! It has been an amazing year, wouldn’t you say? Granted, there were some ups and downs for some of you, which I consider to be my lows, but the highs were amazing, all the same. For those of you that have been with me for years, I thank you, and for those who have only just found me, I look forward to the next eight! Without you, I would not be here to celebrate on the world wide web. It is incredible to realize what a community you guys have created here, and I am shocked almost daily at the friendships that…

I have had to cancel a lot of shows here lately and I am hoping the new year brings back a dependable routine. I only function on routine and the chaos and spontaneous interruptions is not working for me. Last week was due to Christmas, which unfortunately could not be avoided, and this week has been subject to faulty internet connections. However, it seems to be stable again and I am going to go ahead and plan for the make up shows, in hopes nothing changes between now and then. Thursday – 11p EST (Streamate) Friday – 10p EST (Streamate) and 11p EST (VNA)    

I enjoyed dinner last week, even if it was quick and never mentioned afterwards. It always means a lot that you take the time out of your very busy schedule to drive an hour, one way, to meet me at a local restaurant. Not only are you great company, but you always bring a care package! Now, last night you mentioned that you are terrible at gift giving, so you always give food. We need to discuss that poor attitude of yours, regarding your thoughtfulness. First of all, a gift is many things. It is your time, your care packages that sometimes includes socks and it is most certainly food…

I woke up to an amazing surprise from you, on Christmas. It was an email to let me know I have an Amazon GC waiting for me and now I just need to decide what to use it for. I might use it for the boots that is on my wishlist, or a rain chain for the deck… Decision, decisions! You have always been thoughtful and giving, thank you!

It has been a very busy and unusually chaotic holiday week for us, which is a bit disappointing. However, we are at the end of it and I am looking forward to January 2nd. Today, the day after Christmas, we had to drive into Austin to pick up our vehicle that was in the shop for more warranty work. Devil was planning on stopping at the grocery store on the way home, but instead found his way to the Apple Store. By the time he made it home I had the house clean and ready for tonights company. He walks in, with two iPad Minis and no groceries. He said,…
