Lisa and Michael

…except it’s not. Unless you hate weeks of sunny, blue skies with temps in the upper 50s and lower 60s, and absolutely no moisture whatsoever, that is.

Quite honestly, New Mexico has the most boring weather around. It’s almost perfect. To add to my misery, it’s also one of those La Nina years, which means we’re expecting a really dry, mild winter.

Blech.

Lisa loves it, but I don’t. It would be nice to actually have some snowy weather this season, but I’m not holding my breath.

Regardless of the beautiful weather we’re seeing, however, the tree is up with presents underneath and the outside lights have been hung. Now, snow or no snow, I love that part! We made hard candy to give away this year, and you can still smell the wonderful, toxic cinnamon fumes. Definitely Christmas-y here at the house! If I had my choice, I’d have Christmas every month and keep the lights burning. But, no, we’re not that house on the block… the first week of January the outdoor lights come down and the tree gets stored away for another 10 months.

Ah, the holidays.

Very nice man, funny too. Puppy was having nothing of it, though. He was squirming to get down to keep walking around Old Town.

Re: the last post and the iMac… I knew Lisa would come around.

Michael thought it would be a good idea to introduce me to the world of MAC. What a bad idea. I love this thing. I can’t wait to do digital stuff, and surf the web and shop on this. The big screen which I thought was always so obnoxious is really quite nice! I won’t complain about the big white screen anymore. I will embrace it and learn to use it for my benefit.
