It's my party...

...well you know the rest ;) Don't worry tho - I'm not really crying. I am actually excited - I managed to swing myself a date at the department christmas party!! I'm so stoked I can't wait for Saturday. I'm bummed Clay won't be here - but I think I can manage her myself. She's a 4 year old girl :D


FINALLY someone out here took me up on my babysitting offer! She is the daughter of a coworker and soooo precious - I can't wait. More on that to come for sure.

I miss all my kiddies up here!!! I'm afraid I've become some sort of freaky old woman from which people shelter their kids...everywhere I go I stare and them and wave, it's all I can do to not take one of the babies I see in the store and run off with them! Ok, ODDviously I would never do that, but times are desperate out here where not only do I not have any friend's kids, nephews, etc, but it's even at a time when my friends are poppin' out fresh pickens down south!! MAN I wish I could be there to babysit David and watch him grow - same thing for George, Hayden, Grace, Sarah Beth - ALL OF THEM!!!


Ok I've got to quit before I get too emotional ;)


So back to my party...we just had our Christmas party here in the new Visitor Center - cool compared to my prior employers, but I must admit - LAME compared to the other Msft holiday parties. But what do I expect - I AM only in HR after all - not like I'm in a revenue producing group or anything! ;)

REGARDLESS (have I pointed out yet how much I HATE the word irregardless?? It's not a word people!!!!), it was a nice party. I guess. Sick of families and kids on a certain level though - unless you met me yesterday, you KNOW I love kids, but perhaps for once a company party could be aimed at the single folks instead of the parents and kids???????

Ok, I'm sorry everyone. I'll quit.

I love and miss you all.
