Christmas

Wow has it been a busy holiday season. Between work, poker, wife's surgery, and christmas it has been crazy. It seems a long time since I updated. Here goes.

MN has had a lot of snow as of late just in time for holiday driving. We got close to a foot of new stuff in the last 3 days. It has made driving difficult. Yesterday, we went to my mother inlaws in Chaska. I made lasagna for dinner so we left early to get it in the oven. It was about 34 degrees out so roads were wet and slushy, but overall not too bad. I was able to drive 60 most of the way without too much problems. I was driving on a straight part of the freeway in the twin cities with no one around when all of the sudden the backend of the van slide around. We made a full 360 degree turn and ended up on the side of the road facing the right direction and drove on. How we didn't end up in the ditch is beyond me and why it happened is still a mystery. It was so random. Luckily no one was around us. By the time we left for home in the evening it was raining out and 35 degrees and the roads were just wet. Got to love MN waether in the winter.

I have been on a roll playing poker as of late. I am the points leader of my tuesday game and have finished on the final table in the last 3 events that I have played. I need to go to casino before my heater ends, but it probably isn't going to happen anytime soon.

I got Daniel Negreanu's book for christmas. I have heard good things about it. I will let you know what I think. I also got the little black book of Karma Sutra, but I think I will keep that one to myself. LOL!
