I&#8217;ve already placed my order with BevMo to get the &#8220;spirits&#8221; I&#8217;ll need for the Bad Santa punch I plan to make for my Boxing Day Gathering. Here&#8217;s the recipe&#8230;I give you permission to use it at your own discretion! [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to give thanks to Bozoette again for sharing the theme of &#8220;trains&#8221; in her blog&#8230;which led me to realize that I, too, have a wonderful memory of trains. Bozette says that she got the idea from CafeWriting. I&#8217;ve added that blog to my reading list. One more item I seldom get to won&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ It&#8217;s two weeks until Christmas and three weeks until 2012. What a year it&#8217;s been. Everyone around me has had their ups and downs, but we&#8217;re here and we&#8217;re moving through this time of stress and craziness and looking under every pine bough for the peace and love and laughter we know is still here.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some of you know that I was laid off on 7 October. If you don&#8217;t know, don&#8217;t feel bad. I was reemployed by 17 October. I think that may be the shortest unemployment window in the history of this non-depression. I should probably be on the cover of People magazine! As I look back, the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s two-thirds the way through October and I&#8217;m still processing September. Gastric bypass, getting laid off, finding a new job much like the old job, were all milestones&#8230;but September 2011 will always be the month I lost one of my best friends. The world doesn&#8217;t pick times that are convenient to give you challenges, and it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have become a Jelloholic. I have more flavors of Jell-O® in my fridge and cabinet than I knew existed. I&#8217;ve sent friends to the store for me (still am not driving post-surgery) and they have brought back delicious, colorful, new adventures. Some of them (the Jell-O®, not the friends) are pre-made and easy to grab and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am doing quite well, thank you! Turns out I needn&#8217;t have worried about telling too many folks about my surgery, because I write in this blog so seldom, many folks have stopped reading it. The Universe does operate in wondrous ways! Well, in addition to the gastric bypass, I had a hiatal hernia and [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m going to make this work and I have to be honest and open about it with all my friends.  Tomorrow, 19 September 2011, I am having a gastric bypass.
