BYOC!!! Bring Your Own Crazy!!

Drazil’s BYOC is back after a small holiday hiatus.


Yup, Bring Your Own Crazy returns! It is 5 little questions you can answer in your own blog to give your blogging brain a break and to get to know each other better.

Copy, paste and enjoy!

Let’s do a holiday/new year themed BYOC today!
1. How do you feel about NY resolutions? Do you make them? Do you forget about them quickly? Do they help you?

I made some New Year’s goals in 2011 for the first time ever and I did really like the idea of goals and not resolutions… sort of feels more like a direction than a hard and firm (hehe she said hard and firm) stake in the ground.

I don’t think they help me, but I still might come up with some loose thoughts on this topic…

2. Did you put up a Christmas tree? How many? Is it still up?

um…. Well… I’m a bit of a freak in this area.  We have a big Christmas Party the first Saturday of every December and well… we sort of go to town with the decorations including trees.  So… there’s the tree that Santa comes to and it was the only live one inside the house and it was huge this year – ten feet tall and really big around.  We took it down last weekend because it was much, much less big around.  More like sad and droopy and we were very afraid it was going to spontaneously combust.  But… the tree in the kitchen where we keep all the ornaments the kids have made over the years and all of the crazy kid like ornaments that Brad has like the one of a phone booth that has Superman changing into Clark Kent, and various and sundry Star Trek ships and things of that nature is still up.  As is the tree in the front room that whose lights are easily visible from the street, and the little one at the end of the hall is still there, and the one above the front door is too.  And outside there are two little ones on the front porch and the big blue spruce sill have lights wrapped around it.  (As of January 1^st, all the lights are, however, no longer being turned on.)
3. How many total Christmases did you choose to have to attend outside of your home?

Just one – at my mom’s and I was just fine.
4. What are you most looking forward to this year?

Continuing to march forward into the future.  With hopes high and family and good friends near me.  I think it’s going to be a brilliant year!!!
5. Repeat question: Summarize your week in real life and in blogland this week.

Real life… that’s been very busy and exciting.  All kinds of new things are going on – fun is being had.  Hope continues to spring eternal.

Blog land… people seem to be getting back into the swing of things which is always nice to see.
