Randomness...

Sorry for the absence of new blog postings this week. I have just been so very busy both at work and at home. Being busy is a good thing, but sometimes it can wear you down! I am so thankful that today is Friday and we have this weekend to get everything together for our trip to Florida and get some relaxing done too! I am thankful for more than just that for sure:

• I am so thankful that we are able to go to Florida for Christmas. Even though it will be a super short trip-I am ready to see all my family and do the whole Christmas thing!

• I am so thankful for my Aunt Erin's 34th annual Christmas Eve Party and that I get to be there for it! Yay! PS Aunt E: I am SO looking forward to your dip so make a lot!
• I am thankful that things are work are becoming easier...I might be getting the hang of this!
• I am thankful for the week after Christmas...no details yet, you will know more later :)
• I am thankful for my friend Brooke and our daily emails to each other. She is a blessing!
• I am thankful for the beautiful snow, as crazy as that sounds. It is amazing how it covers all the dirty things and leaves them pure and white; kind of like Jesus...amazing.

• I am thankful for my wonderful husband

•  I am thankful for my oh.so.warm. winter coat and feel blessed to have one. I feel for all the people who are homeless or simply cannot afford something as simple as a winter coat or a blanket!
• I am thankful for a good report at the endocrinoligist and no diabetes complications after 13 years witth the disease!

I could keep going and list things that I am thankful for (I really like lists!) but I thought I would stop there! We still have some things to get together before our trip to Florida. I am already trying to anticipate how to get our laundry done before leaving so we can take only clean clothes down with us. We plan on leaving Thursday after work and driving as far as possible...I'd like to drive the entire distance and just get there! I had a dream that we arrived at my parents and realized we had forgotten Florida gifts in Indiana, so I am making mental lists and notes on what to bring to make sure it gets into the car. I really hope we do not leave something important at the apartment!

Oh, today my friend Tina and her fiance Kyle are getting married! The Mr. and I had dinner with them at their soon to be house together a couple weeks ago and they are so excited about their new lives together and of course the wedding. We are excited for them too and wish them a happy wedding day! Congratulations you guys!

Hope everyone has a Happy Friday and a great weekend!
