Happy new year, everyone!
Brandon and I had the most low key New Year's Eve ever. I was tired at 10 p.m., but forced myself to stay up to stay up until midnight. Was the Regis Philbin NYE special the worst thing you've ever seen? Unfortunately we have only two channels and it was either Regis or the show Cheaters. We chose Rege and his wife and the annoying NFL woman. It's pretty bad when you go in expecting a show like that to be full of cheese and it far exceeds the nonexistant expectations.

I almost bought a Christmas present today. As in a "Christmas 2006" gift. This is the girl who normally starts shopping around the 23rd of December, give or take 36 hours.
Needless to say, it felt very odd to think of actually bringing this item home and storing it for a full 364 days, so I didn't start next year's holiday shopping just yet.
In other news, this December was Moonwater Designs 2nd busiest month ever. Yay! I'm celebrating by cleaning the mess otherwise known as my art room. I sent about 40 custom charms out the door, many of the orders from friends and co-workers. The word is finally getting out in Fort Collins. The other day, my boyfriend's sister Jennifer was wearing a necklace I made. She works at a coffee shop in Old Town, and a few of her regulars came in. One proclaims, "That necklace looks like one of our friend Nicki's..." Jennifer explained that I did indeed make the necklace- and it turns out that the two people are work acquaintances that I don't really even know that well (and didn't think knew about MW). Cool!
I made my mom a necklace this year with the quote "When babies are born, so are grandmothers." Although it appears as though I'm hinting at something, children are not in the queue until at least 2010, give or take 36 months. :P I just know how crazy she is about the little muchkins otherwise known as her grandchildren. Next year, it's a "I heart Great Pyrenees" charm.
PS- I just have to note that my mom, who forever has proclaimed to not being a dog lover, sent my sweet puppy several gifts this year, including a kiddie movie called The 12 Dogs of Christmas. He loved the rawhides and *I* love the silver treat container that replaces the 2-foot high tall bright yellow box normally accenting our kitchen countertop. Thanks, ma! We did squeeze in a showing of The 12 Dogs yesterday, and Koda gives 2 dog pads up.
