I'm home from work today because of the ice storm. It looks like things are melting outside, so I might head to the Hadley store in a bit to get some more Christmas gifts and get some wrapping done by the Step participants another AmeriCorps member is working with (if you need any gift wrapped go to Barnes & Noble in Hadley between 3 and 9 today, donations go to the Step Holiday Fund. It's a good cause, I promise).
I feel like I've been really busy lately. I work a lot, and drive a lot, and don't have a lot of time to get things done at home. I just cleaned the kitchen/living room. This weekend I was invited to two parties Saturday (we're going to Desmond & Michelle's because we haven't seen them in forever), and my sister is home Saturday so I think Sunday we're going to my mom's. Then next weekend is the family Christmas party, then it's frickin' Christmas, then New Years, then back to normal? I'm not going to be taking much time off around the coming holidays I don't think. Just Christmas day and New Year's day. But I need the hours, so it's ok.
I've been thinking about what's going to come next for me, after AmeriCorps. And I have absolutely no idea. I'm either going to have to find a job or go back to school. Both of those things are easier said than done. We need to get out of Western Mass though. For sure.
