Merry day after Christmas
Merry day after Christmas everyone! I hope your holidays were filled with family, friends, food and a few presents (come on, we still love presents).
It's been a wonderful holiday at Upham street. I got a fluffy, wonderful feather bed and Franklin and Andy got a brand new cat tree! They are besides themselves and spent most of last night and this morning fighting over who got to sit in the crow's nest. I keep telling Andy to take advantage of his size and kick Franklin's measly butt outta there but he seems to be going through a cranky, shy phase.
I told myself that I would have a early spring cleaning and whip my house back into shape but the three day weekend ended sooner then I had planned! So this morning the dishes that have been in my sink since 12/15 stayed there for another day. I know, I am disgusting. I have another three day weekend this next week, hopefully it will go a little better, or at least a little cleaner.
Work is going well, I am reluctant to mention to my colleagues that I have plans of moving to Montana in the spring. I love my job, but I also love my brother, sister-in-law, nephew and niece! I would really like to get to know them all better and getting a chance to work with my big brother might really be amazing. Of course, I might get to Montana..miss everyone, hate being cold and realize that working with my brother sucks ass..but hey, I can always come back home. Trying something new is better than not trying anything, right?
New Years Resolution time!!!
1) Lose 10 pounds the good way..ya know, walking more places, working out, eating less fried food and drinking few beers (why must you be so delicious beer??)
2) Be a better girlfriend. This is assuming, of course, that I end up meeting a new guy in the new year! Breaking up with Dave was rough but he told me why he didn't love me, which reminded me of things Nick had said, which reminded me of things Miles had said...wait a minute...epiphany. :)
So, I'll try and be better. And this really shouldn't be a boyfriend thing, I am going to try to be a better friend all around. Sorry I am such a pain everyone! I am going to work on a being um...less annoying.
3) Bake more. I love baking. I miss baking. So, I am going to try and do it more often..even if I am sleepy..even if I don't want to do the dishes.
4)Save for a trip to Europe. Even if I have to go by myself which would be really scary..I want to go, and I should dammit!
5)Go on a road trip to Vancouver with Pat-this one is totally dependent on Pat..but it would be really fun.
Um, I can't think of anything else..but really..these are good for now. Don't want to go over board..can't change everything at once ya know.
Hope ya'll had a great Christmas!!!
