dec 3

Since last week time has crept by quickly.
The holiday passed, we survived and actually had a great time at our neighbors' gathering. The girls were ecstatic to have other kids to play with and it was great to have fun times with adults. The long weekend was nice, the highlight was definitely having made Kara's Pumpkin Chocolate chip cookies. Only bad thing is I can't stop eatting them-they came out perfectly delicious! I have decided to make them a definite part of my holiday tradition!

We put up our tree, and with the girls having the camera it made light of another subject that could've been saddening. I was pretty proud of us getting it done all by our chickie selves. I would love to get lights up on the exterior of the house, I just don't know if I'll get up that much initiative... Marley turned one by the way.

Yesterday, the girls finished up their last of the free tai kwon do lessons. Ari may pick them back up after the holidays (she does very well at it), Lili says she's "done". I got my camera working again, so it was fun to take pictures that came out pretty cool.

As of tonite, I'm beat. I think I got to talk to all my main peeps today, and in saying that I was feeling great about it finally being December, I feel like I talked myself out of it. I'm done feeling enthusiastic today. Hopefully it comes back tomorrow, but this evening is crapped out. It seemed like everything I did today ended up being a huge waste of time and for that I am in a horrible mood.

Its funny how the first thing I thought of is how Mitch is always saying he needs a vacation. That's exactly how I feel. I need a vacation from being responsible, paying bills and being in charge and am freakin' tired of it! I would love a day of laughing til it hurts, partying, celebrating and just being with friends...I guess I have my memories.
