From Jan's blog and Jan's friend's facebook page.
It takes 7 seconds for food to pass from mouth to stomach. A human hair can hold 3kg. The length of a penis is 3x the length of the thumb. The femur is as hard as concrete. A woman's heart beats faster then a man's. Women blink 2x as much as men. We use 300 muscles just to keep our balance when we stand. The woman has read this entire text. The man is still looking at his thumb. Repost if this made you smile :)
Happy New Year!
Everyday is a challenge and an adventure. Welcome to the MacCarthy blog. Enjoy and please feel free to contribute. Blessings! Sandy (For the book club reading list, scroll down to the bottom of the blog. Everything we have read since 1999 is there!)

The Christmas Spirit
Santa's elves,the Christmas People were at it again, cooking Christmas Eve and Christmas for the people in local shelters. On Christmas Eve when I visited, they had just finished a luncheon for a shelter with about 200 women. They were prepping for the next day's dinner. On Christmas when I visited, they had spent the morning cooking and were preparing to load up the cars to deliver dinner. They are my role models.
My wonderful friend Jan is taking such good care of our friend going through some major health problems. We have all offered to help but Jan seems to know how to actually get things done. She is my role model.
Everyone who put their differences aside to make all the Christmas get togethers lovely and loving are my role models.
My awesome co-workers choose to collect food and toiletries for local food banks and shelters instead of exchanging presents and having a department party. They are my role models.
Last but not least, Dad-in-law's health is improving, an answer to many prayers! Another blessing to my in-laws for all the care they have been giving him. We love you guys, and you are definitely my role models too!
It was a Very Merry Christmas.

It's beginning to look like Christmas - a lot
The board at work is decorated for Christmas. We are collecting food, toiletries, etc for several local charities. The trees were made by Michelle's sons. I made the little stockings for everyone last year.
Assembly is starting on the gingerbread house. Marina is having so much fun - and drafting her student to help!
Drove past the crowds for Santa's Country Village arrival tonight on the way home from the kennel. This bicyclist believes in safety and celebrating Christmas!
