I would have happily gone to the concert with you! Lynn was very lucky I wasn't there! I hope it was wonderful! I'm also glad for your new washer. You needed/deserved that. Enjoy!

I like your take on it, though, at least the timing was good!<br /><br />I totally would have wanted to go to the concert with you! <br /><br />I can't wait to try out my new wheat grinder. It is huge, however, so I'm still not sure where to store it...<br /><br />I enjoy January.

I love the idea of letting cars be dirty and of course I love the thought of devoting the month to reading books:) <br /><br />With all your broken (and old) appliances, you remind me of my mother-in-law, who I adore. I can't help but wonder what magic you saints are made of. I don't think I could stand for it. If I'm going to be doing laundry, I'm going to have a nice washer. Same with a dishwasher. Same with pretty much anything that should, and does, make my menial tasks better. But, I'll have to re-think that again as I've pretty much accepted that if I can model your behavior, I'll have it made:)Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11107964636020955468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234790858142513224.post-11066286474298503512010-01-09T21:44:07.700-08:002010-01-09T21:44:07.700-08:00I think your take on January is absolutely brillia...I think your take on January is absolutely brilliant and should be published worldwide to help everyone who succumbs to the post-Christmas let down and gray winter blahs in January! I may need to borrow your first paragraph and quote you on my blog because I think your views here are so inspiring! <br /><br />I'm so glad your washer made it to the last load while the kids were all home, what a blessing. It must be super nice to have a huge new one though too, I'd be giddy.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09032420498045893374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234790858142513224.post-22189534285427916412010-01-09T21:12:37.697-08:002010-01-09T21:12:37.697-08:00January would be immensely better is a) it wasn...January would be immensely better is a) it wasn't so cold, and b) the sun was out a little more. <br /><br />And that's all I have to say about that.Susanhttp://www.unclutteringapyle.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234790858142513224.post-56200259068044170142010-01-09T20:21:33.782-08:002010-01-09T20:21:33.782-08:00I try and enjoy January.

I hope for a full report!<br /><br />Our dishwasher is going out. It washes the dishes some of the time. And the knob broke so we have to pull pliers out and turn it just so, to get it to turn on. I think that handwashing is cleaning them much better. The drinking glasses especially. But it does take a while to get it done for a family of 6. It is nice when there is help. Not so nice when I am the one left to do them.<br /><br />I love your story about your wheat grinder and how you want it put away every now and then.Alisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03820262717838528113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234790858142513224.post-86510602350175564982010-01-09T19:02:00.059-08:002010-01-09T19:02:00.059-08:00January is a two-faced month for me.

I usually look forward to relaxing, but forget about art show applications, the beginnings of taxes, and the ever-present desire to change my eating habits. I'm getting a better start this year, though. None of the above have changed, but somehow my attitude toward them is more laid-back. We'll see how long it lasts . . .Heather @ Multiple Hatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17684216457038939469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234790858142513224.post-74317311656254911812010-01-09T16:48:43.371-08:002010-01-09T16:48:43.371-08:00I love (!)Jon Schmidt concerts.

I wasn't very excited about it because I went to a piano concert once when I was younger and fell asleep from boredom. It was bad. But, his was entertaining the entire time!Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05921763228986493287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234790858142513224.post-53490505849458232432010-01-09T16:30:46.337-08:002010-01-09T16:30:46.337-08:00I love january because it starts out with my birth...I love january because it starts out with my birthday on the first, and I love birthdays!! Also we had to get a new fridge right before christmas. it sorta stunk because they are expensive, but I really do like it!! Also I would LOVE that concert. David took me to a Jim Brickman concert after we were engaged and I LOVED it!! Hopefully he wasn't your bad experience because I LOVE him and own a lot of his CD's!!! <br /><br />Enjoy the concert!Tiffany Fackrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13966252493719919418noreply@blogger.com
