Pumpkin Pie Lager

Well I have to admit that this batch of beer has turned out well. It's been sitting in the bucket for about a month now. I will hopefully be bottling it this weekend. Been kinda lax in wanting to bottle or brew anything else, but I am going to try and brew several more within this new year. More coming soon...

The holiday blues

Here is the day after christmas and I feel that yesterday was just another day. The kids had a fantastic time and I enjoyed Christmas better this year because of the fact that I lived it through the kids. My birthday, which was 3 days ago was pleasant day. I took the day off after my appointment with my counselor. I'm doing well, and it does show. It does in our kids as they want more attention when I disappear. The joys of being a mommy. I'm not complaining. My best year so far, I have to say. I have some great friends, including my bestest friend, my husband who all have helped me through the difficult stages as I continue to grow and get better.

My kids received from Santa Claus or I should say is that he brought the whole family a Nintendo Wii. So far, the kids have been playing with it like mad. I got a DS Lite for my birthday/christmas and I play it when I can without my daughter wanting to play. I've been having to hide it from her but I think she doesn't want to share. The definite phase of a three year old. I'm not complaining. I'm definitely learning the stages of my kids and I'm figuring things out day by day. Life gets better every day and that's what it's all about. Until next time.
