I’m going to attempt to go over to my parent’s house tonight and make Christmas Cookies. I wont be doing the majority of the dough-rolling or baking this year but I’ll try as much as I can. I refuse to let this stupid back of mine get me down. I got out of bed around noon today and after I got out of the shower, I had a huge nausea / sweat induced moment. I was not feeling well at all and had to lay down in bed with some crackers. I got up after it subsided and ate a little bit of lunch then went to bed for another 3-4 hours.

I’m up now. I’m ready to go. My back does hurt. Pretty bad. But I’m going to go anyway. I want to have fun, I want to be with my family. I want to make Christmas cookies! It’s a tradition!

And girls.. I am so sorry I haven’t replied to your comments below. I WANT to but I’m trying to figure out why WordPress decides NOT to e-mail me any comments. It only emails me comments that are awaiting approval, but not the ones that are already automatically approved. I even checked the settings and it is set to e-mail ALL comments that are posted. Piece of crap!

I’m thinking of doing an entire re-install of WordPress. Which requires a LOT of patience and time. But I installed it on my “Flog” (which I haven’t been using, ugh) and there is a “tag” feature where you can put tags on each entry. My current installation doesn’t have that and I’m wondering if it is just out of date. We’ll see.. When I have more time after Christmas I will probably mess with it then.

The pups have been sniffing their presents under the tree.. I keep telling them they have to wait until Christmas to open their presents. But me, being the dork I am, secretly wants to give them to them now ;) I hope you all have a wonderful holiday filled with the people you love and lots of laughter.
