1. ate wings--many, many, many insanely many wings
2. watched the super bowl--i was pulling for my boyfriend, peyton manning, but you can't be sad the saints won
3. also watched a little bit of the sound of music due to the fact that i was too tired to change the channel--watching SOM with my son gave me a chance to observe that he should be very happy i never made him wear lederhosen made out of drapes
4. he agreed

My year in review
Over at http://wouldbewritersguild.blogspot.com, Tiffany has a great post about her year in review. So with a grateful nod to a fabulous fellow writer, I'm doing the same thing.
January: Read Scandinavian mysteries (Karin Fossum is divine) and discovered LIFE ON MARS, both of which helped me to survive the month.
February: Helped Carma Wadley judge Sterling Scholars for the D-News, an experience which made me wonder what it would feel like to have a kid who didn't sleep in and miss math finals.
March: Came out of hibernation on March 15, just like always. And yes! There were daffodils blooming in my front yard!
April: Mostly rejoiced that I didn't have to go to soccer games and freeze to death at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday mornings because my kids are old now. I'm always surprised by how crappy the weather is in the spring.
May: Broke my wrist and got a new plate and seven screws to celebrate.
June: Made important new friendships at the BYU conference. And then I sat on my big old behind on a So Cal beach and soaked up the sun.
July: Went to my high school reunion and discovered they can be fun after all.
August: Lived for the first peaches. Peaches never disappoint. Oh yeah and I went to France.
September: Watched football games, of course. Re-discovered how much fun it is to watch them with my dad. Graduated from physical therapy and have (seriously) a diploma to prove it.
October: Went all out for Halloween this year. At times I almost think I like Halloween better than Christmas because there are fewer dishes to wash.
November: Speaking of dishes, I did Thanksgiving at my house and loved it. Had a little come-to-Jesus with my mom and mother-in-law, in an effort to convince them THAT I'M A MATRIARCH NOW, TOO. Which means I shouldn't have to split up my holiday running between both of their places.
December: Seriously, people. The tree in my house puts the tree in the governor's house to shame.
And meanwhile the year was filled with good things to eat.
Happy New Year!
