Quiet.

Been trudging through life.  We're broke as hell, still, but I only have 2 more weeks of classes and that will be done for the semester.  Boe's getting his substitute's license back up to scratch so we have money coming in as soon as Christmas break is over and while he puts applications in with any educational facilities for which he qualifies.

We had a quiet Thanksgiving, and spent the rest of the long weekend cleaning out the Tornado Room and working on projects.  I am 3/4 done with Mom's Christmas gift, done with my Adrian gift exchange person's present, 1/2 done with a gift for a close cousin, and have not yet started my niece's Christmas gift (but hers can wait til I have most of the others out of the way).

Still here, still breathing.  Just doing what I can to deal, you know?
