I was upstairs putting things away this morning when I heard Matt's voice from behind the closed door to his office.
"Lori? Could you come in here?"
"Sure," I said as I stopped making Jane's bed.
I opened the door and saw Matt working at his computer. My eyes landed on the coffee mug next to him and I knew what he was going to say before the words came out.
I beat him to it. "You want me to get you more coffee, right?"
"Would you? With a little skim milk and Splenda, please."
"Sure, honey."
I figure it is the least I could do since I completely ignored his birthday.
I am not sure I want him to make a habit out of it, though!!
And that, my friends, is my last post of NaBloPoMo. Yea!! I should do a month in review, but for right now, I will be happy not to feel any more pressure to get something out by the end of the day. I won't take any big break because I am in a routine now (and I have a long list of things I want to post), but I will relax a bit. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming along for this ride. For reading, commenting, e-mailing, sympathizing, laughing, supporting.

You made it good for you. I think they pick November because they know that there is no chance of anyone managing December.
Cheers

I take my coffee the same way as Matt! Tell him I said Happy B-day! Congrats on sticking it out for the entire month-can't believe the month's gone.

WAY TO GO!
30 days.
I'm not doing a review post either (geez, all that linking!) but I doubt I'll take much of a break either. ;)
Tomorrow is blog exchange day after all. :)
