Sunshine and scribbles

This morning, we woke up to storm clouds. The cozy kind. The ones that bring in freezing temperatures, and chances of snow, but Morgan and I don't mind.

We stay warm and snuggly inside.

'Tis the season.

A few highlights from the week:

Our computer got a terrible virus and I almost lost all of my pictures. I spent 2 1/2 hours on the phone with Rajat from New Deli, India. He was kind and patient and very helpful. An answer to my prayers, really. Lesson learned: back your important files up. And do it often.

Dashboard's new cd came out Tuesday.

Yesterday, I bought mint M&Ms and it has gotten me pining for all things Christmas. I am counting down the days until I begin begging Jared to haul in my Christmas totes. I'm sure he's looking forward to that, too.....

Saturday, I bought leather boots at Ross for 15.99 (yes, real leather) and a few Christmas goodies for my entry table from TJ Maxx. I love that store. Both of those stores, in fact.

Jared and I have been in a Star Wars craze lately. Natalie Portman is beautiful. Also, I think Hayden Christensen would have been a decent Edward. Right?

And don't you think that Obi Wan had feelings for Padme? It's been a great debate between Jared and I, and I really think he did.

Also, Jared's been calling me his padawon all week. Yeah, right. As if he's the real Jedi-master around here.

What have you been doing?
Are you excited for yummy Thanksgiving dinner?

We are. We've been talking about it all week.

What are your plans? Are you staying home, or going out of town? What's your favorite holiday tradition?

I hope you are all swell.

Love to you.
