On a Monday no less.

1.  So I was sick on Saturday (and Friday and Sunday and today).  Stinkin cold.

2.  First snow of the year December 11, 2010.

3.  First middle school band concert coming up on December 14, 2010 -- missing BUNCO for this -- so worth it.

4.  A dear friend was diagnosed with ALS. :(

5.  I wore heels for the first time in two months.  I think the back held fairly well.

6.  Our Christmas tree is not up . . .yet.

Good tutorial on the soap dispenser.

Love the look of her sink area as well. Mine is similar to that and I like the hanging light and the curtains. Filing this away as an idea to remember for kitchen redo.
