Forever Beloved

Faith, Love & Truth

hello there december…01/31…

i’m happy to see you…you are one of my FAV months!  you are happy, festive, sparklie…you hold the birthday of the REAL reason for the season…you’ve given us tons of classic movies…and songs…and for all those reasons i love you…
tonight is exercise class and I.CANT.WAIT.  i know, that is slightly freakish…but it’s such a good sweat/burn…and you feel SO good afterwards!!!  now jade, she’s not as excited as i am.  but she goes and she tries and i have to give her credit for that.
last night jade and i had a conversation that went like this…
jade…”mama, you know amish people?”
me…”yes jade, i know who they are”
jade…”ya know their hats…they remind me of station wagons”
me…while dying laughing…”what?”
jade…”you know, station wagons, like on little house on the prairie”
todays pic of the day is my little desk christmas tree…that i made out of an old book a few years back.  it’s hard to see but there is a little deer that stands in front of it as well.  the pic is kinda crappy, i took it with my blackberry (aka “crap” berry)…

monday blahs…

i think i have them, the monday blahs…the holiday weekend just seemed to fly by so fast  and here we are, back at work. 

we had a fabulous thanksgiving!!!  my friends michelle and jen joined us for lunch.  the food was SO good, i just love cooking thanksgiving dinner!!  after dinner we were able to sit, relax and catch up…which was nice.  i hadn’t seen michelle for probably 2 years or more. 

it was SO nice on friday to have the entire fam home, the house was clean, nothing pressing to do…just hang out and watch tv.  an all day marathon of “say yes to the dress” to be exact.  i was up early, around 6 am, and watched about 5 straight hours of that show.  and I LOVED IT!  i don’t know why i’ve never watched it before.  later on in the afternoon then joey’s friend gabe came and stayed the night…so we ordered pizza.  they stayed up well into the night playing ps2. 

saturday morning joe got called out at 5am to plow for a few hours…he was SO happy about that.  i’m not so sure i’d be as happy if i got called in to work at 5 am on a saturday.  in the afternoon we took gabe home and then went on to altoona.  i had some jeans to exchange AND we went to dinner at outback!!!  you KNOW that’s my most fav place EVER!

so tomorrow is the first day of december…my kids already have the countdown to christmas going on.  and i’ve decided for december i’m going to TRY to post every single day on the little blog here…and try to do a pic a day.  try being the key word…

♥♥♥short work week♥♥♥

oh hello there short work week…you KNOW you are one of my besties…tomorrow at 3:30 my 4 day weekend will officially start, YES!  and i can’t wait!  i’m so so so excited to cook (and eat) thursday and friday i have absolutely NO plans but to sit on my butt and veg…and enjoy the day with my fam.  saturday we are heading to altoona and having a little outback, YUM!  sounds like a pretty perfect weekend huh…
i put my christmas tree up last weekend soooo that is off my list for this weekend.  now if i could only keep the stupid cat away from it.  i read somewhere that cats hate citrus smells so i peeled an orange and hid the peels under my tree skirt…so far so good. 
so did anyone else watch the season finale of project runway?  i was SO SO SO mad that irina won, i could not STAND her at all…i really thought carol hannah should have won.
