I am glad you love it, was totally unsure what to get as you haven't be around much lately.

Sent it from my husbands, being a bit sneaky...lol

Thank you so much. It was incredibly thoughtful of you. I've got the ornament on my tree!

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

Hugglebuggles was my Secret santa!!!!!!!

Here's my photo... it was a beautiful glass ornament.. EXACTLY my style, and I really wanted more glass balls for my tree, so this is PERFECT!! I placed it next to my sheep :)post-28786-1260826844_thumb.jpg

Yay you got it!! Glad you liked it! Something about it said simple and elegant, just like you :)

Its from this big Christmas store here in Denver called "Saint Nick's" The place is HUGE and somehow is able to stay open year 'round. I love it!

Maybe next year, we should indicate if we have any allergies.

I'm worried I killed my secret santa.... Havent' seen them online since they supposedly got the package!

Montreal Interviewer: "What do you have in common with each other?"

Peachey: "We're REALLY weird."

Montreal Interviewer (incredulously to me): "Do you agree with that?"

<I think back to several days before the interview. Driving through the country, passing a field with cows...>

Peachey: "MOOOO! MOOOOO! Does this make me weird?"

Me: "No, well yes. Here, let me roll down the windows so they can hear you better!"

Peachey: "MOOOOO!!!!"

<back to interview>

Me: "Yes, yes I do."
