Happy Holidays

Wanted to wish everyone a Happy Holidays with your loved ones! Here's a picture of our tree. I wasn't sure if we were getting one due to going out of town but we decided to anyway as my son loves all the christmassy stuff.

We are off on our trip tomorrow night for that cruise! I can't wait to have a warm Christmas. The only problem is that we have been having SNOW for the last few days so I hope that doesn't cause us troubles flying. We usually have mild winters and not much snow so this year is shaping up to be quite different. Here's a pic of the snow out back of my house.

We are going to open presents early tonight....I think...as we don't want to be hauling many gifts on the trip. I don't think I have many readers left as I haven't been blogging much the last few months but if you're stopping by....say hi. I'll check back in with you all when I get back from vacation.

Survived the week!!!

I survived finals week! Yes!!!!! Happy, happy, joy, joy. I think I got A's on all my finals tests....not sure about one of them as I won't get it back. For the class grades, I think I'm getting mostly A's and prob. one B but we'll see what happens when they post them next week.

For the comment from Spider/Ironman.....if I'm done with school yet....no, unfortunately not. Just a winter break. I have to take classes till June and then intership in the summer and be done in mid August. Then the big test I will have to study for to pass the boards....to get my license to be a radiology tech. We already kind of have started studying for this big test and it's an ongong thing.

We finished today and went out to breakfast with a lot of the other classmates...so it was fun. Would have been funner to have a party but that will come later. We have a conference in April in Wenatchee (in Wash state.) so that should be fun. People are already talking of the partying that will be going on. I'm sure there will be. There is quite the age gap from 21-50 year olds, so it should be interesting.

Now....I can get back to concentrating on my family and getting ready for xmas. We are going away this year but I'm still getting a little tree and have gifts to buy. I'm excited to have time to myself too. What will I do with myself? ha! It's back to the gym here soon, to the hairdresser. to the mall, etc. I need to get another outfit for the cruise as my mom wants us to dress up some nights. uggghhh. I'm just not that happy getting new clothes....I mean with this body. ha.

We are going out to dinner to celebrate the end of the quarter. Just some pizza or something but will be good to get out. Hope you are all doing well and I will make the blog rounds here soon!

Finals week

Sorry, bad blogger but I haven't had much time due to school. It's the dreaded finals week and I am up late studying for exams. It'll be over by Thursday and then I can have some much needed time off.

We had a nice Thanksgiving with family and most of my other time has been spent on school projects and presentations/papers. Oh, my exciting life as of late. Since we will be away at Christmas I'm trying decide on getting a tree. I know my boy would like it so maybe we'll get a small one and decorate a bit at the end of the week. I haven't even started shopping!!! We are cutting down this year so I don't have as much to get but it makes me nervous that I haven't started yet. I can't seem to get into the xmas mood and I have to get this week over first. At least we aren't getting as much for the extended family as we are going on that cruise.

I'll come by and visit your blogs later in the week when I can come up for air! Hope you are all doing well.
