Or I may not.<\/li>\n<li>I might make some bread. Or some cookies. Or some muffins. Or an apple crisp. Or all of the above.<\/li>\n<li>We&#8217;ll go to the farmers&#8217; market and get some more good veggies and the first good milk of 2006.<\/li>\n<li>We will arrange the new reading\/knitting nook by the window.<\/li>\n<li>I will sit in the new nook and read or knit.<\/li>\n<li>We will go hear Al Gore talk on Monday.<\/li>\n<li>We will flip back and forth between Brit-coms and the Pats game.<\/li>\n<li>I may even break out the Dance Dance Revolution game and do some exercising once I find sufficient space in my living room again.<\/li>\n<li>We will mail bills and thank you notes now that we have two-cent stamps.<\/li>\n<li>I will upload my most recent photos to the web so I can post my final roundup posts for 2005.<\/li>\n<li>We will sleep late. Or if we do not, we will not change out of pajamas until it becomes late.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>That&#8217;s it. Some things may fall off the list. Others may get added. It&#8217;s hard to say right now.
