While in the pursuit of happiness,
one should stop -
and just be happy . . .

Brett & Me



It was sure nice to have Brett home for a few days - including New Year's Eve.  Patrick picked him up in Nashville and then they picked up Lori & the boys and all came here.  We all celebrated by eating too much and just spending time together.  The Jones Family went home the next day.  

Brett & I went to see The Hobbit that night.  Joe was feeling pretty rough from a cold that just wouldn't let go.  Brett was able to do some other family visiting while he was here before I took him to Knoxville to stay with Blake a little while.  We met him and Lauren at a Cracker Barrel in West Knoxville and had a late lunch together before I headed back.  So nice to spend time with them.

On the way back, I stopped in Cookeville and did a little shopping.  Then I went to see Les Miserables.  I wanted to go by myself because after I heard what boo-hooers others had been, I thought I'd rather sob alone.  I took extra tissues with me, only to discover that I didn't shed a tear.  Sure loved the movie, though!
