Christmas and New Year

Happy New Year y’all!

Christmas was nice, though we didn’t have a big tree, nor any decorated tree … with a baby again, and all the stuff that comes with one, with the way our main space is these past few years … there was just not the space for a Christmas tree, nor the energy to “try to fit one in anyhow”. :(

Hubby got me a PSP for Christmas, bundled Lmt. Edition Darth Vader (as sold at Costco). It’s cool, though I’ve done more “web browsing” on it than anything. I got Atari Classics, and Star Wars Battlefront Renegade Squadron, and a couple of movies. I didn’t have Memory Stick Duo for it right away, so I didn’t play games much. I got a Memory Stick a few days after Christmas, and it’s nicer now, I have bookmarks for the web browser and saved data for games, etc. now. I haven’t taken the time to play any games really though. I was able to buy another game and another movie the day we went out and got the Memory Stick Duo. Oh, that is a 4GB Memory Stick Duo Pro, btw.

It’s nice to add more electronics to the stash.

The children got me something too, a new Betta fish. It’s moreso blue all over, with a little bit of orange on the bottom fin area. He has a nice plastic house (it’s an angled betta “bowl” with a blue cover.) I haven’t named him as of yet. He’s so very plain looking, compared to Thaddeus, who has been with us for 1 full year now, and looking good.

The new betta isn’t a Crowntail, as Thaddeus is.

I noticed that the “back” of the new “bowl” is totally flat, and the widest part of the “bowl” and perfect as a place to put something colorful … so I fitted a piece of Christmas wrapping paper to it, and that set him off nicely. He has blue stones, and he’s blue, the top is blue, and the paper is a dark but bright cranberry-ish red with “Merry Christmas” written in gold horizontally all over the paper. I can change that out when ever I desire. I’ll make up a template to make that easier (I didn’t think to do it originally until I already had the water and the betta fish in the “bowl” :rolleyes: )

Our new year is alright, nothing spectacular thus far. I wrote more about it on my other blog.
