I am watching Extreme Home Makeover... that show'll get you everytime. Quite moving. It makes you wish you could have Ty Pennington's job. I'd love to get paid to change people's lives like that. They always pick people who really need it too. The ones where they help families with special needs kids always get me the most. Plus they send them on an amazing vacation that they could probably never afford while the house is being built. Sigh.


I am not Eskimo, but I am part Alaska Native. My Grampa grew up in a small village in rural Alaska, fishing and mushing dogs all through his childhood. He can't anymore because he's losing his eyesight, but he used to make these scale reproductions of dog sleds. One Christmas he gave my siblings and I each a little dog sled. I will treasure everything he's made me, forever.

I got to redecorate/renovate my room this summer and I never got to see it done until now. It is beautiful! I will take some pictures soon.

Well, I am so delighted and happy to be here and home for the holiday. Tomorrow will be so cozy and wonderful. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you all consider your many blessings during this season!

A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues. --Cicero
