Geaux Tigers!!

Well after a tough season and a disappointing early loss to Auburn, the LSU Tigers pulled it off in the end. In a must win against Arkansas the Bayou Bengals did it! This catapulted them into the BCS and were ranked #5!! Lets hope the rumors that LSU will play in the Rose Bowl are true, that would be something.

November....

Well its November now and last weekend daylight savings time left us :-( I am definately not a winter person (as my family can tell you). I'll start the count down to the shortest day of the year and then let everyone know when the days are getting longer! But just the prospects of facing Jan/Feb are depressing me now....

Not to mention now we have to think about Christmas. I love Christmas but its hard work. So many expectations that have to be met. Even I put these on myself. Last year we weren't going to get each other anything, whats the point. But of coures, I had to. And I did get a lot of enjoyment out of it (of course now I know from Robert Lewis my great gifts still only scored me 1 point). And she was happy. The best part of Chirstmas really is that it draws the family together. It seems its the one day a year when that happens. Everybody is so busy and teenagers always have something going on (anything that doesn't require being home!). But not on Christmas...

So I'll look forward to that and avoid thought of a dark, cold winter...
