OMG, me too! I keep getting those emails and that's when I end up coming in, but not in between, not like usual. Guess we've all been busy this holiday season.
I do have a few excuses, though. The good: my daughter got engaged!!!! The bad: two funerals in the space of three weeks.

The ugly: my furniture - or, at least, it was. Hubby and I didn't exchange gifts this year; instead, we replaced our falling apart living room furniture. Now I spend a lot of time keeping my furbaby off the new stuff! We still have our old chair, which is still in good shape, and there's a blankie on it for Gus to lay on, but he wants to be next to me like usual!
