Random Dozen: The Last one of 2009.



I am reveling in the third snowfall of December here. Last week we enjoyed a blizzard on Christmas Eve and the first white Christmas of my life (I had to check with my mom and she assured me I hadn't had one in my short 33 christmases in my life). But more important stuff awaits. Here it is, the final Random Dozen of the decade. Tada:


1. Do you find it gross to share drinks with family? Friends? I have been known to share a coke with my mom at the movies. We have separate straws though. But that's kinda my limit on sharing. Maybe I would share with my sister. I don't really share with friends.


2. What have you learned this year? (You didn't see a question of that weight coming, did you? At least not for #2.) You can't go back.

3. When do you dismantle the Christmas decorations? Usually on or after January 1st. Except the snowman display my mom has on top of her bookcase. That usually stays until the end of January.

4. Something you wish to accomplish before the end of 2009 is: Writing an article for Exemplify (that's the only thing I can think of that can be accomplished in the next two days).

5. How do you feel about winter (after Christmas)? Last year I was very depressed in January. Very. I usually like winter (when it snows) but last year? Not so much.

6. Have you participated in after-Christmas sales?
Only at work.

7. Do you have plans for New Year's Eve? If by plans you mean sitting in my pj's watching movies and eating appetizers and then ringing in the new year with sparkling cider and then going to bed, then yes!

8. Is there anything special awaiting you in January?
I hope so! Wouldn't that be nice...there are some nice tv premieres I'm looking forward to (Chuck! Is! Back!).

9. If your life this year was a movie, what category or genre would it be? (Romance, Comedy, Drama, Thriller, Suspense, Farcical, etc.) One of those slow to build but hopefully still a great story line before it ends kind of dramady's (is that how you'd spell it?).

10. How much time per day do you spend blogging? Please do not lie. I will know. In the early days it was a couple hours a day. During this hustle bustle holiday season I'm lucky if I eek out 15-20 minutes. Hence the super deep answers to these questions.
11. Who runs your household? It's a three way split. But I am the bossiest.

12. Share one hope/dream for 2010. I know that this is a little personal, but I would really love to meet the man I'm going to marry. And if we just so happen to marry in 2010, that wouldn't bother me at all. I can plan a wedding quickly if need be.


So that's that. The last Random Dozen of 2009. Bring on the New Year of Random!! And find more delicious random dozen at 2nd Cup of Coffee

Your new year's plans sound pretty similar to mine! Although if I actually manage to stay awake until midnight, it will be a miracle. :P

That is what we are doing for New Year's, too! And, we are very excited about the "new Chuck". I might miss dorky Chuck. Anyway, Happy New Year! Good luck with your article.

Quotes

"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me- watch how i do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly." Matthew 11:28 The Message
