Still alive!

So I totally blew the holiday advent meme. I blame my finals, my student's finals, then my husband's student's finals (which I ended up grading for him, as he was in Panama.) No sooner had I plowed through all that, but my son came down with a horrible flu, into which I followed almost immediately. We're both finally getting clear of that (barring a nasty, soupy, lingering cough) and have been scrambling like mad to get caught up on all the holiday stuff around the house.

So, holiday meme kind of fell off the end of the list. I did get cards sent out though, possibly even in time for delivery tomorrow!

Around here, I got the tree up and trimmed, shopping done and loot wrapped, fruitcake baked, bourbon balls and first two batches of cookies done. I think I"m almost caught up!

I am also pooped! Talk to all you lovely folks tomorrow!
