Happy New Year:)

Well, Yes, I did disappear for a while.

I was enjoying my time with my family, with all of us being together for the few weeks that Erik was/is home for holidays from training. He leaves again this coming Sunday to go back, and he graduates his training program on March 5th, if all goes well.

The holidays were fantastic for us! The kids made out really well, and mommy even did well for the first time ever. Erik bought me a watch, silver, with a pink face, and its covered in Diamonds!! I have to send him away more often, he brings home nice gifts!! I also recieved loads of pajama pants, from those loved ones who know how much I hate to get dressed!!

We travelled alot, and I actually got to do alot of driving myself, where I am liscensed to drive now:) We took the kids to Bathurst to visit Grandmaman, and all of Erik's cousins that are down from all over the country for the holidays. We also made a few trips to Saint John to visit my family.

We spent our New year eve in Saint John, taking my mom to run some errands, and getting Erik new sneakers for training. We came home to Fredericton around 7pm. I did my mother in laws hair for a local dance thing she and her husband were going to for New Years, and I started to not feel so great.

I have had this damn head cold for about 5 days now, and my head doesn't feel sick anymore, but I feel completely out of balance. I'm still blowing my nose constantly though, 3 rolls of TP, and 3 boxes of Puffs with Vicks lotion later, and I'm still blowing strong. It took me until 2:30 this morning to get to sleep, and I was up at 7.

Today, me and Erik are making a big ham dinner, with all the trimmings. Should be our last big meal together as a family. Erik flies out on Sunday at 12pm.

I hope everyone had wonderful holidays, and a safe New Year:)

Oh, and big CONGRATS to Kelly on her engagement!!!
