These Past Days

I know, I know.  It's been 3 days since I posted.  I've been slack, but I have good reason.  More or less.

But I have been busy, really!  It's not my fault that I lead such an interesting life that I can't take 20 minutes out of my totally packed schedule to write a blog post.  I just haven't got the time.  It's snowing in South Carolina!  (awkward change of subject)  Yes, it's true!  For the second time this year (remember back in February?)!  This is an amazing weather phenomenon!  What's supposed to happen once every ten years has now occurred TWICE in this marvelous year, 2010.  I think we should have a party.  Anyone interested?

 Some light flurries.  :]]

 A little recap of what's been going on these past days I've been offline:

December 24th-- After I slept with my curls, my hair looked even more amazing than it had the previous day.  I got some sunglasses and shoes from Cato and a cute new pink sweater from Walmart. 

My new sunglasses-- I truly love them! 

My pur-dy curly/wavy hair.  Perfect for hitting the town!

On Christmas Eve we also got a new kitty named Fritzy.  Well, that's his nickname.  His full name, you may ask?  Bailey's Ragdolls Lord Fritzgerald.  Yes, a truly remarkable name for a truly remarkable cat.   (Barnie's full name?  Clarkston Rag's Sir Barnabas)  Though Fritzy is a very timid, shy kitty.  He's spent his days hiding under my parents bed (we're keeping him in their bedroom the first week or so).  He's very sweet and very soft, but he's also very shy.  He probably didn't like the fact that the first day we had to comb out his matts and wash his tail.  The breeder didn't keep up on grooming him-- he was dirty.  :[[

Here's a not-very-good picture of him before he darted under the bed.  He's going to be a lot darker than that.  Barnie is a blue bicolor, meaning that his fur will be a dark-ish gray in certain places.  Fritzy is a seal bicolor, meaning that he will turn dark brown in places.

December 25th-- Nothing.  We basically just sat around the house.  We didn't do gifts or anything for Christmas, just watched TV.  Fritzy was our present!  :]

Decmber 26th (today)-- Went over to hang out with Grandma Barb while she was staying at her friend, Laurie's who is out of town visiting her daughter.  We baked ginger snap cookies (not hard, very soft!  really delicious!) and pumpkin bread pudding, which was also good.  I ate so much dessert today though that ever since 3:00 I've felt like I was going to throw up.  No lie.  But we did go to Goodwill today.  That was when it started snowing!  I didn't get anything, but Grandma got a few books for my cousin, Xander.  

Am I not adorable?
