Final Post of the Year

It’s the final day of the year. 2012 is going away and 2013 is looming large. I'd like to say there are grand plans for the new year, but honestly? I can't think of any.

I know Grilltech is planning to go to Game Storm at the end of March. We most likely go to Jackpot for my birthday in June. Might do Thanksgiving at Grilltech's mom's house.

I'm back to working on my blanket. I completed four more squares. Still have forever to go, before it's even close to being usable.

I wanted to a slide show of down the street for the past year, but since we host our own photo's I can't get them to work. So, instead I'll leave you with a graph of my car counts for the past year....


Yea, I know. I'm such a geek.

Hopefully only three more slippers to make: the blue's mate and a set of purple ones.

We got some know Saturday night, but it's pretty much melted off.
