Random Thoughts

1. I really, really like the snow when I am inside. When I have to go to work; not so much. How am I supposed to look cute when my pants get soaked from nasty, dirty parking lot snow slush at our apartment AND at work?

2. One night this week we were forecasted to get several inches of snow and I felt like a 5 year old who was so excited and could not sleep on Christmas Eve. No lie. Sometimes it is good to look at things with a childlike perspective!

3. Oh, and that snow was beautiful in the morning!

4. I love, love, love...did I mention love-Christmas time. I look forward to it for most of they year but this year it is making me a little homesick. I usually always help my Mom put up my parents tree and also help my Grandma with her tree. Mom has her tree up, but it took her 4 days and Gram's is still in the box. I know there are other family members there, but I kinda wish I was too.

5. I really like our apartment and it's location. I can get to work in 3 minutes and the same thing coming home. Not to mention all the places to eat and grocery shop that are right by us!

6. My husband rocks. He is so sweet and helps me out so much. Last week I asked him to vacuum the living room and after 20 minutes I realized he was sitting down but the vacuum was out of the closet. i checked to make sure he understood my request, that I wanted him to vacuum not just get the vacuum out for me. He understood, but got distracted reading the mail and ended up vacuuming the entire apartment for me-behind doors and everything!

7. I have not really felt like cooking at all recently...I think I would be okay if we ate Totino's pizzas every night for a week!

8. I look forward to getting the mail everyday, just because of the possibility of receiving a Christmas card :)

9. I cannot wait to see my family in Florida! 16 Days!

10. I officially registered my car in IN this week and now I am sad because I have to remove my pretty Florida license plate and put a plain blue one on. I realize this is something I have to do, but I really don't want to. Oh, and in IN you cannot smile for your license picture...that's right I have a mug shot that is NOT attractive!

11. Tired of my random thoughts yet? I am, and I should be doing so many other things right about now so I will get to those things!
