Maybe I should update more often!

HAPPY 2009 EVERYONE! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a very happy New Year! My Christmas break was wonderful. I was able to spend mucho time with my family and hang out with my friends, even with a few that have since college moved out of the state. I also had a fantastic New Years with an eclectic group of friends. We didn't fall asleep at 12:02, we were actually still in the bar believe it or not!

Side note...just got a call about playing sand volleyball on Sunday nights. Yay, another night of volleyball...SO EXCITED, CAN YOU TELL?!

Back to New Year's...we were actually still in the bar until about 1:30 p.m. WOW! We have just proven that we are not OLD, which by the way I feel as I am lately. I'm going to be freakin' 25 in July. That just can't be possible!

So New Year's Resolution...no it's not to diet, or work out or stop drinking soda. I am kind of excited about this one. I have resolved to just all around be better. I want to be better at my job, better at cleaning, better at money management, better at friendships, better at my relationship with God,better at being a sister/aunt/daughter/ granddaughter, etc. I'm not going to claim that I will be like the most awesome at all of these, but I do feel as though for the last year(s) I have been a little lacking in all of these areas. So, for 2009 (and beyond) I just want to be BETTER! Let me know how I am doing.

So, I got a new bed this Christmas, which would not have been possible without the help of my two very best friends Ryan and Dave. Let's give a shout out!They also helped, okay no...put the whole thing together for me and rearraged my room (as they do best) and hung all of my pictures/paintings. So, to them I owe a huge thank-you! I finally feel like it's a grown up room, instead of a poor/no extra money/right-out-of-college girls room.

HOLY PHONE CALLS! I think I should just glue it to my ear today! I think everyone at the child care missed my voice or something! 22 phone calls today and counting....

Alright, you bored yet...good because I'm done with this post for now. Thanks for reading!

You've been waiting your whole lives....

You've asked for it!
I'm hoping for a snow day tomorrow. Now this would be the start of a longer vacation for most, but for me, no. I still have to work next week Monday and Tuesday, rip off. Tis' the life of a child care director. I'm thinking though this is Wisconsin and it will have to been one heck of a snow fall for school to be called off. If there is a late start, nope I still have to be to work at 7:00 am. Who made these rules anyways?

Christmas has come upon me faster than normal this year. I feel like I am not even close to being done, when in previous years I have been done quite early. I know in the end it will all be finished, with not much sleep to be had, but it will be done.

I do always look forward to Christmas time though. I love giving presents to people especially to people who deserve them. It's also great because my friends who have decided to move so far away are coming to visit. I would be more happy if they just moved back to Wisconsin, but for now, I'm just very glad that I will get to see them for the holidays. I'm also ooober excited for New Year's. We have vowed to not fall asleep at 12:02 am this year and acutally stay out in the bars for the turn of year. I feel like I'm going back to my youthfulness. It will be great to celebrate with some pretty great friends.

I'm going to go make some awesome frosting now, for the sugar cookies I plan to make on our potential snow day tomorrow. Here's the start of my blog. Wish me luck!
It's short, but I'll be back. Maybe on my next no sleep night (wait that's every night) See you later than I guess!
Love ya all!
