This Past Week

I renewed my driver's license.

I took Maddie to the vet.

I ate Indian food, Chinese food, and Thai food, but not all at the same time.

I went to hear a favorite Las Cruces band, formerly called Flashlight, currently called Chain of Fools.

I discovered that bunnies are coming into the yard in the evening, which necessitates shooing them out of the yard before letting Maddie into the yard. I don't mind live bunnies but I don't want dead ones.

I bought peppermint ice cream. I have been looking for this every Christmas season for the past few years, but maybe the stores had already sold out by the time I started looking.

I bought five discounted Spode Christmas china salad/dessert plates and so now I have a complete set of six.

The first outlet mall opened between Las Cruces and El Paso and seems to have a great assortment of stores.

The happiest news is that my friend/colleague gave birth to her second son this week and mom and baby are doing well. Erik was born on 10/10/07 and joins mom Laura, dad Keith, and brother Ian who was born on 03/03/06.
