GO SEAHAWKS!

Millie made herself comfy for the big game yesterday.
Go Hawks!

Port Townsend

It was an action & adventure filled weekend in the quiet town of Port Townsend. Just a short ferry ride and drive from the city, Port Townsend offered impressive local fare, wine tasting, a cozy hotel, and a lovely hike along the beach and through the woods. A nice way to re-coup after the holidays.

The Anti-Santa

It seems that there are a few scrooges running around these days. Upon returning to my car last night, which was parked on a relatively empty side street, I found a note under my windshield wiper blade that read, "learn to park douche". Now seriously. I can't say this little nasty gram didn't piss me off, but I trust this individual will receive a lump of coal in their stocking. Or maybe I'll get lucky and be able to chuck a piece of coal at them....
Anyhoo, luckily my drive home took me right past one house's holiday light extravaganza and my cheer was restored.

Santa Come Early

I'm convinced the kitties are peeking at presents when I'm not looking.

Hustle and Bustle

With 8 more shopping days to go, I set out to get some shopping done today. I expected the worst-long lines, no parking spots, cranky shoppers. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Seattle-ites are filled with holiday cheer! So with the bulk of my shopping done, I popped in a movie and got to wrapping up my gifts. My mistake: ribbon on the gifts....a kitty's dream come true.

Christmas Cheers

The office holiday party: a time to mingle with co-workers from other sites, talk about non-work subjects, celebrate the holiday season together, and of course, exchange gifts. The rules were simple: you can either choose a gift from the gift table (in order of lowest-highest seniority) or steal a gift from someone else. Gifts can be stolen a maximum of 2 times. The theme to last night's gift exchange was coffee and booze; a therapist's favorite things! So as you can imagine, by the end things got a bit ruthless. I'm happy to report that I came home with a hot toddy gift set. Now that's what I call holiday cheer!

Christmas Kitty

It seems Mo has caught the Christmas bug. Here she is hanging out in her new favorite place with pals Ruby the Reindeer and Frosty.
