So my sisters and cousin came over on Saturday. Normally we would have a fantastic time, but the day was definitely marred by my one sister drinking WAY too much wine, and her boyfriend being an argumentative idiot! I don't know that many people would describe me as laid back and easygoing, but can't we all just get along. If someone says the sky is blue, do you really need to say it's blue and white, because there are clouds in the air? You may be right, but you'd also be incredibly annoying. That's what we were dealing with...Next time, it's going to be girls only (plus my hubby).

The upside is that my kids had a fabulous time seeing their favorite cousing, and the food was great, with some leftover for me this week. Hubby has dinners out tonight and tomorrow, then is going on a business trip Wed and Thurs. I'm planning on spending the time doing laundry (as usual) and continuing to take care of some housekeeping issues. I'm doing well with my 2006 goals...for all spending categories where Dec. #s are final, I've tallied it up and planned for next year. Everything else I'm tracking and will finish up the last week of the month. As part of my planning, I looked at 2004 final and 2005 numbers. It's amazing that, even when you think you're keeping an eye on things, there's still plenty to improve upon...

So that's it from here...nothing else is really new.
