Goooood morning! Merry Christmas!!

Congratulations on the new niece, Lil! Hope to see pictures in the future. ;-)

GUESS WHAT???? We opened presents late last night (we usually do it that way, and then Christmas Day is quieter and more...I dunno...thoughtful), and GUESS what they gave me????

ROTK EE!!!! I thought we were maybe going to get it for Margaret, but we hadn't gotten to any place that had it and no one had mentioned it, so I figured I'd be waiting who knows HOW long to see it! Definitely did a happy dance when I opened that! Totally unexpected!!

Heh...Stephen said "Or to you, it's not 'Return of the King' - it's 'The Further Adventures of Faramir'." I didn't think I'd been that obvious.

I'll be watching it sometime over the next day. Let the spoilers begin! Woo-hoo!!!

Also got a lot of other great stuff, including several books from Dad about writing. That tells me HE at least is taking me seriously, and I coulda kissed him for that, if we weren't rather non-demonstrative Scots-Norwegians...

Now I gotta finish getting ready for church...

Did I say woo-hoo?? Let me say it again! Woo-hoo!!

Good Morning Rosie - Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Very happy to hear you have the ROTK EE. I think you'll be pleased with the extra footage and scenes.

Wow! You got a great surprise! They've redeemed thmselves a little!

We're having a pleasant time here. Finally got all the presents unwrapped. I got some lovely things for hanging on the walls at my apartment, a Hobbit painting I'll have to get a picture of to show you and Mom made me a gorgeous wall quilt. It's a Celtic knot, in greens and golds. Lovely.

Got a couple gift certificates, some adjustable measuring cups, a few knick-knacks, and some little earrings, cheap since I can't wear much in my ears anyway.

Other than the lack of snow, this Christmas has been lovely so far.

Paul got one for me, and I immediately got online and ordered the free (you have to pay $3 for S/H) slipcase to hold all three DVD sets!
