the sign of the times


so it has been a few weeks since i posted. our lives have mainly consisted of work, (mainly shelly :), finn, family, and shopping for christmas.
thanksgiving was so great. it definitely stood up as still my favorite holiday of the year. we played apples to apples and ate ourselves silly. i had to run three miles almost everyday when we returned to our normal schedule.
now that christmas is upon us, it has me thinking of the 2010 year. i truly feel like this year is going to be such a positive year. from all things health to family i feel UP about this next year. i am making sort of a bucket list. things i want to do before i die. i want to full fill several of those this year. i do not plan on dieing anytime soon, but why not start early right? :)
keeping everyone posted on finn and shelly:
shelly is doing good. she doesn't even want to talk surgery until after the holidays. she is keeping contact with her neurosurgeon and she is thinking around march. every time someone brings surgery up, she is like,"yeah, it IS brain surgery people". so we will wait for her surgery for a few more months if that is what she wants.
finn, not only has he regressed, he is like a teenage boy that is in his goth, i want to be bad phase. yes we still love him and always will, but i do have to say, it is like having a child. truly truly. we were watching the animal planet the other day, and some dog expert was talking about, When you want to think about getting a puppy. She was like, " you really have to be committed, THIS is the next fifteen years of your life, so choose wisely".
Shelly looked at me and said, "holy hell! seriously! fifteen years!"
I said yes very calmly, " so you better start learning to love this sweet lil man!". Those two have a love hate relationship and it is slowly becoming more about the love. haha.
I hope everyone is doing really well.
Congratulations to my cousin Kevin who had a new baby boy. Welcome to the family sweet boy.
