Happy New Year 2011!

I know - I'm a bit late in my new year greetings! I do have a good excuse.......I think...

I'm in my last Master's class, which is a thesis class. I've never had to write a thesis before! When you get your BA in teaching, you student teach instead of writing a thesis. It's all a bit overwhelming, while being interesting at the same time. To do everything I need to do, I should take a leave of absence for the next six weeks! That's not, realistic, however, so I'm going to write the best darn paper I can with the 6 hours per day I have until February 28th!


Other than my elevated stress level - all is good here!


Hmmm......let's see....where was I......

November 14

A friend invited me to a girls night out last weekend. We ate a yummy dinner and made these mixes in jars for gifts. Despite my exhaustion I had a fabulous evening with a bunch of women I don't normally see socially.

Lyndsi is putting the finishing touch on her school birthday goodies. She wanted ice cream with Oreos for everyone! I must say, it was a successful treat!


November 16
Happy Birthday, Lyndsi! For dinner, we invited our whole class out for pizza and cake. About 14 kids came to celebrate with us.



November 18
Don't know where November 17th went.....oh well.
I went to visit with Ani Black at Blackbird Clinic here in town. She is a naturopath doctor and I'm hoping she can help me determine what is causing my severe excema (which I've never had before the last couple of years!). Doctors have done what they will do for me so I decided to try something different. We'll see!




November 19
Yikes! This is what I showered with this morning! Since I'm nearly blind without my contacts, I didn't know I had a guest in my shower until I came nose to nose with her!


November 20
Snow! It snowed a couple of inches today and the kids were in heaven! They spent most of the day playing in the cold.



November 21
I know, I know - never decorate for Christmas before Thanksgiving! But this year I couldn't help it! The snow put me in the mood, and I had a weekend off from homework - my decision was made!



November 22
I am having a hard time comprehending that my baby is writing her own thank you cards! So old....



November 23
Brrrr.....this is why we need new windows! Our bathroom is like an icebox when we come in in the morning.

I love when we have a free evening to play a game or two! King's Corners is my current favorite family game.

LOL I can totally relate with the visitor in the shower. Sometimes I just don't want to put my contacts in to see what is in there :)
