Merry Almost-Xmas-Hump Day!!

It is that time of year!!!!!! We spent last Saturday facing the freezing temps in order to pick the perfect x-mas tree. It was so much better than last year when we were all in short sleeves cuting down x-mas trees in 60 degree weather. This year was much more appropriate. There are a few things i need to point out though.....Remember last year?

Wow....things change quick!!!!!!

Ok now that we have determined that Maeve grows at "ludicrous" speed...lets get back to the tree. I picked out a steller one for the Lancaster Apt. Lou and I got to decorating it last night...and impressively we barely fought. The final product came out pretty darn adorable if i do say so myself. Don't ya think?

Oh....PLEASE don't forget about this....super important we all don't burn our houses down for the sake of forgetting to water the x-mas tree a couple of times. Happy Early X-mas!!!!!!!!

Because it's hilarious

Oh my mother mary.....can this really happen?!?!?!? And holy hell it's funny if it can!!!!

Just one of them days

Did you ever have one of those days where you just can't tell your head from your butt. I'm having one of those days. It started when i took the wrong way to work this morning...even though i have been making the same trip every single day for the past 4 months. I then decided to leave work today without my coat on....i may be one to wear flip flops everyday of the year but it's damn cold...how did i forget my coat?! I then went to school to do some tutoring and fell asleep in the lounge and missed it...no big shakes no one was expecting me...i was just going to show up and see if anyone needed help...but still...seriously?! I found out i have a crazy semester coming up this spring and it is really going to screw me up schedule-wise and financially. Needless to say i'm not having the best of days. So here i am sitting in one of the nice, new (new to me) Canisius lounges trying to concentrate on some homework. It's not working...wanna know why? I wanna be here. Doing this. Yeah yeah....i know i know....i moved home...i'm working towards a great stable career in a field i love. But that does not take away the fact that i def miss the crap out of working with the birdies...why can't i have the best of both worlds?! There HAS to be a local population of deaf or hard of hearing oiled wildlife that need me, right? And they are right here in WNY, right? Yeah i didn't think so....so yeah...it's that kinda day. I think this funk comes from the fact that i hate school...i will get through it because i want the end result but please bear with me...i think i am going to be complaining some more before i have accomplished my goal next spring....oh, may of 2009 how i long to be near you.

Things can only get better from here though....my favorite back to back holidays are coming up and i'm ecstatic! I also have someone in my life this year that will make the holidays even funner...yeah i said it...FUNNER! My breaks from school are coming up i can catch up on my TV and induldge in the plethera of cookies these upcoming holidays will provide. ok kids be good and holla at your girl.....have a great turkey day!!!!!

Gobble Gobble!
