You know you are in Kodiak when....

  • When traffic reports are replaced by the FISHING REPORTS
  • The water on the floor mat in your car is frozen
  • You automatically remove your boots when entering someone's home
  • You use flat-rate priority mail boxes more than envelopes
  • In Winter, you know who is taking their Vitamin D and who isn't
  • If you don't already have auto-start on your vehicle, you wish you had it
  • You know what a Coastie is, and it doesn't mean you live near the beach
  • You know what Xtra Tuffs are, and you have some
  • You have to do the Kodiak Stomp before entering a store
  • Just because you have a ticket to fly, doesn't mean you will actually leave that day--"weather permitting"
  • It's cheaper to buy DVD's than to have cable TV
  • Store clerks actually wish you a "Merry Christmas"
  • You hear people complain about having to drive "all the way to the other side of town" (10 minutes)
  • Traffic congestion is 3 cars at an intersection
  • Your car doesn't have a chance to warm up before you arrive at work
  • When looking out the window is more reliable than the weather forecast
  • You go to work, church, and shop with the same people
  • Driving a rusty car is "no big deal"

Christmas Eve

Well, it's Christmas Eve.

Matt has been working his toochy off at his jobs, and hasn't been home much.

I managed to get all of my "to-do" list for Christmas completed--with the much-needed help from my daughter, Nicole.
  • The tree is up and decorated
  • Christmas shopping budget has been used
  • Presents are wrapped and under the tree
  • Fudge has been made
  • Toffee candy has been made
  • Goodie plates have been delivered to our neighbors
  • Snowman is in the front yard
  • Sugar cookies have been baked--awaiting the frosting tomorrow
  • Dough for cinnamon rolls has been started
  • Handmade heating pads have been made for Nicole's friends
Now, all I want for Christmas is time with my husband. He's still working as I write this. :(
Happy Christmas Eve....
