Happy New Year

A new year, a new name for the blog.

Since Captain Chaos (aka little E) does not actually eat everything anymore the old title had to go.

We had a happy, and remarkably healthy, holiday and hope you all did too.

We made it back from our southwest adventure with minimal difficulties (other than dealing with an over-zealous security person before my first cup of coffee. Why on earth should I have to take a sweatshirt off a small child before taking him through the metal detector, the same sweatshirt he wore without incident on our trip out? Grrr.)

Our house was still standing. It was neither flooded nor torn apart by tornadoes. There was no ice on the cars. There are, in fact, still two newish, comfortable, and well tuned cars in our driveway. There is a living room full of toys. Enough toys to entertain a small village. Actually, probably a very large village and we are awaiting the shipment of 4 boxes from NM. Our cup, and house, runneth over with good fortune.

I think it's a good start to a great year.
