I’m in a bit of a rush, as my procrastination has once again paid me in spades. In my defense, ever since physical therapy Friday morning I have been in more pain than I’ve had in quite a while, so everything takes me at least twice as long to accomplish. But I’m following the rules and not going back to the scooter even though it’s killing me. I also have not even considered calling for them to come pick it up…I’m just not that brave yet. Anyway, I’m off in a few minutes for my dad’s house up north for my final Christmas party of the season. Here’s hoping today is one of his good days!

By the way, this might be the last affiliate news post for a few days, judging by the sparseness of my inbox. So if it is, let me wish you all a Happy New Year now. May 2013 treat you well, may 2012 be a memory (good or bad, up to you), and may you all have good health and happiness.
