Do you even *know* HTML?

I tried to be a good little girl & copy all of my pre-holiday design HTML so that when it was time to go back to the usual design things would be nice & simple. But could it work out that way? No, of course not! For some reason the left side column took up 80% of the page. After searching the HTML for 30 minutes (even comparing it to the original designer's HTML), I still couldn't figure out what the heck was wrong.

Finally I decided to remove the Doodleboard & the XML Feed and the Blogsomethingorother hit counter. Hmm, the columns were back to normal. Added the Doodleboard & XML Feed back (since Evan can't live without them) and still normal. Put the hit counter back. Totally jacked. Ah well, my hosting provider gives me a free web stats program anyway that is *much* cooler than anything I found for free. Just don't understand why it got messed up in the first place & *why* it took an hour to fix.

I made my very first turkey today! Luckily, it came out fabulous & it was a lot easier than I anticipated. The only mishap was the fact that I put it in the roasting pan upside down. Oops. :)
So Tom & I had turkey, stuffing, scalloped potatoes, corn & rolls for Christmas Day Dinner. YAY!
I wish I could have been home with my family for Christmas. I hate missing Christmas at my Grandparents' house. Hopefully next year we'll finally get there. We haven't been home at Christmas since December 2001 - the first Christmas without my dad. Since then either Tom or myself (mostly Tom) have been newish at jobs and haven't had the ability to take off.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!
