Today I am officially "finished" getting ready for Christmas. The cards are in the mail/emailed, presents are bought/wrapped/mailed or under the tree.
All I have to do now is sit back, relax, maybe make some cookies and enjoy the season!

About Me
- Susan
- I was born in the Redwood Country of Northern California. An honor student in high school, I turned down a full tuition scholarship to Humboldt State University to marry at age seventeen and go on to have three children in the next five years. I’ve never forgotten that starry-eyed girl who dreamed of becoming a newspaper journalist. I settled for an AA in Sociology and a minor in Business from College of the Redwoods and eventually found a career in telecom. Starting as a telephone operator and working my way up to a management position in purchasing with a large independent telephone company, I assumed I would work there until I retired or was found slumped over dead in my office chair. Life, however, often takes you on paths you never dreamed you’d travel. My husband had a stroke in 2005 and we found ourselves becoming a multi-generational family, moving 160 miles away and in with our younger son, his wife and two grandchildren.

Girlfriend,
I haven't even started yet! I'm so proud of you for being done with all of the shopping. My daughter just celebrated her 18th birthday and it's always a challenge trying to do the birthday thing and then turn around and do Christmas.
Plus I always find myself dealing with some melancholy stuff around this time because my dad passed away the week before Christmas and no matter how hard I try I always think about it.
