An Update on the New Year

We had such an excellent Christmas break. I did laundry as needed. Enjoyed the company of my family. Fixed a lot of hors d'oeuvres for munching around. And that's pretty much it.

The Evil Twin returns to work today and Buddy returns to school today. That leaves me and Sissy - and most likely a trip to the Mart of Wal later on.

So, to ring in the New Year, the Evil Twin went in search of new calendars for the house. Buddy likes a calendar in his room, the Evil Twin likes one in his office and then we have one that hangs in the dining room, even though I have a write-on/wipe-off calendar I keep on the fridge and a date book I keep with my "stuff" (address book, bills, etc.).

I got an email from the Evil Twin regarding some calendars he had seen on Amazon that he would like to order.

He asked my opinion on one he thought would be nice in the dining room:



I laughed so hard, I thought I would cry.

Too bad it is out of stock.

I am not a gay man (check picture above), but if I was, this would be the calendar for me. Even as a straight chick, I do like the big bears. Fur and muscle? Not so much. Try fur and just heavy set. That's my type. I love a big, hairy man.

Not this:



But,this:



Is completely acceptable, in my world. :-) Lucky enough for me, the Evil Twin is just what I ever wanted (the pic above is not him, BTW).

We decided upon a Graffiti calendar for the dining room, which is both artistic and colorful and not offensive in any way. Plus, the calendars are all on sale and free shipping for orders over $25! I'm all about that!

Wish me luck as we embark on our first day back to the regular routine. :-)
