It is almost Turkey Day!!

I can't believe that Thanksgiving is next week. I am so excited to get a day off from work and spend some relaxing time with family. Also, i can't stop thinking about all the delicious food we are going to have. I am going to make the sweet potato casserole this year. I found a recipe in one of my Cooking Light magazines and it sounds quite good. unfortunately, michael is working on thanksgiving, but he will join us after work. On a better note, he is off for christmas, which will be nice.

well, life at work is going ok. After a week full of meetings, we have some new added responsibilities. I guess things aren't always fair, but you go with the flow until you just can't handle the flow anymore. i hope that makes sense.

School is kicking my butt. I guess I just never thought it would be quite this hard. I have been doing well thus far, but I did just get an 80 on a paper. But, it was a type of paper i had not written before. We have one similar due in a few weeks and I think I have learned more about what she is looking for, so hopefully i will do better on the next one. I think it just makes for very long days and weeks with both work and school. I feel like there is constantly something i can be working on. I have been trying to find some time to have fun and relax. We are going to six flags this weekend because our work is giving us free tickets. That should be a fun day full of no thoughts of work or school. :)

Other than that, michael and I decided we are going to take a short vacation at the beginning of january between semesters. we dont want to do anything crazy, just something small and low key to get some time to relax away from all of life's business. :)

On another bright note, I bought some new pants this weekend and they are 2 sizes smaller than what i was wearing before i started weight watchers. YEAH!! anyway, i am off.
