I'm doing homework!

I'm busy doing homework. Lots going on around here ... in the future anway!!!

We are planning on getting a new addition to our family in the spring. I need to do my research on breeders now. I've already looked at one place and have another one scheduled for Friday. The mamas will be bred in December and 9 weeks later, hopefully, there will be enough babies for everyone that's reserved one. 8 or 9 weeks after that, she will get to come home. So we should be expecting her in May. Let's hope there is a female in the litter.

Before that, though, we have a BIG trip coming up!

 Kim and I are going Down Under!!! We are just about to start making plans now. We'll be going in April for about 3-4 weeks. Planning on doing lots of things there that I've not done before. Looking forward most to see Ian. There will be a bit of travelling around Australia.

In the meantime, the week before Christmas when everyone is running around being busy, busy, we are leaving town. We're heading to NYC for the weekend. I want to skate on the rink at the Rockefeller Centre as well as see the Christmas tree there. There will be so many lights around the city, I'm sure it will be beautiful. The windows at Macy's, Lord and Taylor, etc. will have all their beautiful displays. I hope it snows, just a little, while we are there.

Just wanted everyone to know, we are still alive and well here. Kim is still working full time. LOL! So much for retirement, not that I'm complaining. Matt is doing well in his studies. And me, of course, I'm still working .... only 1513 days until I retire... but who's counting? I am ... that's who!!! :)
