| | Comments (0)

I have the honor of co-hosting Brian & The Judge once again with Ellis Henican.  The show runs from 9a - noon, eastern time and can be heard on Sirius 145 or XM 168.  If you don't have satellite radio, just go to:  http://www.foxnews.com/radio/index.html and click on "Listen Live".

I hope you all have a safe and happy New Year and let's all hope that Obama knows what the hell he's doing - for all our sake's.

Oh and we may be adopting a new family member!  I'll post pics when & if we do.

Sorry for the short notice, but I'll be on Fox News Radio tomorrow morning.  I have the honor of co-hosting with Ellis Henican and we'll be filling in for Brian & The Judge from 9a - noon, eastern time.  You can catch Fox News Radio on Sirius 145 or XM 168 or by going to:  http://www.foxnews.com/radio/index.html and clicking on:  "Listen Live".

The reason for my tardiness here is actually a good one.  We were tagged to puppysit an 8 week old puppy that my brother & sister-in-law had gotten for their daughters and he needed a home for a couple of days before Christmas.  I had no idea puppies were nocturnal!!

Anyway, I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas and I hope you have a wonderful, blessed New Year.

 

Fox News Channel

I know it's a crazy time of year and everybody is super busy, but if you're near a TV this Sunday, I'll be on the Fox News Channel at approx. 4:20pm, eastern time.  Of course sometimes it can be delayed as much as 10 minutes depending on the day's news and will run anywhere from 4 - 7 minutes.

Again, the Fox News Channel can only be accessed via cable or satellite.  It is NOT the channel you watch the Simpsons or your local news on.  It is the channel that carries, Shepherd Smith, Neil Cavuto, Bill O'Reilly, etc.

On a different note, congratulations to my youngest niece on losing her first tooth.  She was extremely excited tonight and very concerned about how much money she's going to get.  She's just like her father.

I hope everyone has the time to sit back and really enjoy the holidays.  I think we sometimes get too caught up in the insanity of it all and it loses its meaning.

So have a Happy or a Merry and talk to you again soon.

 

Odds & Ends

As usual, it's been a while since I've posted anything here.  I've gotten sucked in to Facebook and it's turning in to a full time job.  But it is fun reconnecting with old friends and we even had a mini, high school reunion last Wed.  I saw some people I hadn't seen in 30 years!

We survived the house tour again this year, but the weather really hit us hard and I don't think we came close to making what we made last year.  It may be time to find something different to do next year.

I hope everyone is surviving the season so far.  Doug has a ridiculous number of Christmas parties.  He had 8 parties in 11 days and just told me he has 3 more next week.  I would have loved to have gone with him, but in an effort to prevent my body from exploding, I've been opting to stay home and only went to 3 so far.  Last night while he was out eating & drinking, I was home addressing Christmas cards and watching "Happy Feet".  Now it wasn't all that bad, but I'm glad I didn't pay $10 to see it in the movies.  But I didn't lose interest & turn it off in favor of Celebrity Rehab or Top Chef, so that's a good sign.

What really shocked me though was the blatant political overtone to the movie.  If I had kids, I would be ticked off!  If you have an impressionable kid, they would never eat fish again!  Does EVERY movie coming out of Hollyweird have to have some liberal slant to it?!  No wonder nobody goes to the movies anymore! 

I'm still struggling with posting pictures on this blog.  It isn't the easiest thing in the world and it's frustrating the heck out of me.  That's why there are only 2 up so far, and I can't get the caption on one to show up!

Construction is at a standstill (yet again!).  Now we're waiting for our architect to get updated drawings done because the town won't let us proceed until they have updated plans.  The work is fine and will pass, but the inspector is being hard-nosed and withholding our "Pass" sticker until he has the plans.  On the upside, we've finalized the floors and are meeting with the cabinet maker next week to finalize the new down-sized cabinet plan.  We had to cut back on some of the extras, but that's okay.  My kitchen has been on the porch for over 2 years now and I think anything other than Tupperware would be thrilling for me.

I'll be posting my upcoming schedule as soon as it's finalized.  Hope you're enjoying the holidays!!
