I need to get back on track with my blogging.  The greater issue is that I need to get back on track with everything.  January is always a difficult month because it takes me forever to recover from Nutcracker and the Christmas season.  Hopefully, by the end of the weekend, I'll be able to have a more regular housekeeping, school, therapy and ballet routine figured out.  The housekeeping has been the hardest to keep up with.  I'm a seriously awful housekeeper.

We've been watching the Avatar series on Netflix.  We have really enjoyed this.  I have to say that I really enjoy this series.  The storyline is very interesting and some of the dialogue is hilarious.  I also LOVE Netflix instant watch.  We stream it through our Wii.

I'm working on decreasing my yarn stash.  I have a lot of cotton yarn and I'm working on a bunch of dishcloths.  Next, I'll work on my wool stash.  Then, my sock yarn stash.

It's been cold.  It's been very, very cold.  I'm such a wimp.

I need more crockpot dinners that my children will eat.  They are so picky.

I spent this past weekend with my brother, Patrick.  It was wonderful to spend the weekend doing, well, nothing.  We went shopping, ate out, and watched football.  And, no guilt for not doing any work.  It was great.  It was nice to just be there with Pat.

I have a ball to attend in February.  Here's what I'm thinking for a dress.  It's too long though.  I'll need to get it shortened and not from the bottom either.

    Crock Pot: Pulled meat (any meat). I did chicken the other day and we served it up “chipotle” style with rice, black bleans, sour cream, cheese, etc. My kids love it!
    Tell me about it…freezing my tushie off.

    KC,
    The dress would have to be shortened where it joins the top to the bottom. It could be complicated depending on where the zipper is placed. It would have to be taken out, and then put back in. It is do-able.
