Movie quote.
Anyway, so what have I been up to? I am pleased to say that I've been dutifully Christmas shopping, decorating, getting ahead on my homework, shoveling the snow that graces my front walk and driveway, and carefully folding and packing the clothes I'll be taking to Washington for Christmas break. Sprinkled in among that, I've been cooking a variety of healthy and tasty meals, the leftovers of which I lovingly pack into Tupperware to take to lunch the next day.
------Paaaa ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Essentially, I've been doing none of that. The Christmas presents, whether bought or made, have yet to appear. I've taken care of my parents and Ryan and Cherisse's family. That's it. I have a half-made present for someone else and then nothing (NOTHING) for anyone else. Not even Kevin. I went Christmas shopping the other day... and came home with a new pair of pants for myself. So much for the spirit of giving. I set out my nativity sets, and I put up a couple strings of lights on our house. Only one works, so part of the roof is very nicely outlined. Then it just stops. If by "getting ahead on my homework" I mean "doing absolutely the very minimum and hoping somehow to conjure up two very large assignments by Monday," that would be closer to the truth.Our driveway is covered in snow that I'm driving over enough to compact it into ice. Having trouble getting the car out sometimes. And as for our Washington trip, I may just bring a pair of jeans and the sweatshirt I got from my school this morning. That with clean underwear could very well constitute 2 weeks' worth of clothes. And Kevin's doing laundry today, so it should work out very well. I'll be stylin! And as for food, if Taco Bell's Fully Loaded Nachos counts as a well-rounded meal, then I've been eating very well-roundedly. I packed a tuna sandwich for lunch today, but for most of the rest of the week, I've been either eating the school lunch or bringing random fruits and hoping they'll fill me up (not so much).
So that's what I have been up to. Well, what I should have been up to. I'll run some errands at lunch today, and then after getting together with some friends, I'll have the rest of the evening and then the day tomorrow to catch up and get ahead on life.
Again, paaaa ha ha ha ha ha ha!

good luck!!! :D
For me this is what life is. Just trying to keep my head out of the water or maybe I have a straw in my mouth and that is what I am breathing out of. I don't know how other people can get it done! We all have the same 24 hours to get things done, but still....I don't know how they do it. At least I know how do pose beautiful under water! Now that is talent, right?
I'm so sad I don't know the movie quote..
I totally know the feeling of going to the store and coming home with things 4 urself. I went to Barns and Nobles (read.. giving into addiction) and came home with a puzzle, book, and 2 games. My reasoning was that I MIGHT give away the 2 games.... MIGHT.
Good luck. Happy stressful holidays!
So I will tell you my secret for getting lots of stuff done, I don't sleep. You'll notice that this comment is being made at 4:55 a.m. Yes, I have been up for the past hour. Actually the real reason why I don't sleep is because my back hurts, but I do sleep in short spurts throughout the night. After writing this comment I will probably go back to bed because I am feeling a bit better and hopefully I can get back to sleep. Darn that Brodi, he is so dang big! But you should try it-I can get lots done in the middle of the night when I am completely uninterrupted.
