live well. laugh often. LOVE much.

whew.... i've never felt like this about christmas, but i'm truly glad it has come and gone. i swear, i have so much on my plate that i can't wait until like the second week of the new year.... my thinking is that by then, all of the shit we've been doing to our house will be done... ah, i can only hope.

i'm at work right now. i have this entire week off and yet i'm here. i had something i needed to get done and when i finish i'm gonna leave. honestly, i think i just need a break from the house stuff. i was laying tile from the moment i got up until i left to meet andy for lunch. i still need to go shopping for new year's eve decorations {{{{{sigh}}}}}}. the actual benefit of having the new year's eve party at our house and having andy's family come for christmas to our house is that it is motivating us to finish the tile faster. you know, a real deadline rather than scratching our asses waiting for it to finish itself. i can't wait until i can start putting up our pictures and our dali posters. i feel like that's what makes my house a home. i love when people come to my house and walk around and look at the pictures on my wall, or ask who was the artist of one of our dali posters is. it's weird, i know.

andy got me a coach bag for christmas. what a good husband. i gave a small, short christmas list to neneng, toto, and andy, and he even went shopping and didn't get me a thing on my list, but did a really good job nonetheless. although, sadly enough, i'm gonna exchange my coach bag. he said he knew i was gonna. anyway, it's getting more normal with the whole "husband/wife" thing. i still kinda giggle inside, but at least i don't avoid saying it anymore because it sounded too weird. :)

i need to start working so i can finish what i came here to do. i'll see everyone in 4 days!
