lazy
I've had no motivation to do anything today. Mike and I finally took the Christmas decorations down, at least. Now I'm sitting here watching the football game and staring at the decorations I need to put back... I feel so tired, achy, and blah. I hope I'm not on another down swing...
Steph and Tom finally got a chance to see the apartment last night. I love spending time with them... we don't need to go anywhere special to have a really good time. I'm glad we decided to get together twice a month! And earlier in the evening I got to see Steph try on her wedding dress!! She looked so beautiful. My bridesmaid dress is awesome, too! I wasn't sure how much I was going to like it, I'll admit... but once I had it on I absolutely loved it! I can't believe the wedding is only 4½ months away!!
Big week ahead. Second sub job of the year (I know, how sad), "Encore Night" at school, four years...
Hoddie will be here in TWELVE DAYS!!!
