Life, Simply Put

I'm just going through the stages and living my life. I've been super stressed out lately but I'm still trying to enjoy life as much as I can. I have recently been working full time since I started serving and it sure is taking it's toll on me. I am exhausted every day and I rarely ever get a full day off. I'm lucky if I get one day without work. This last weekend I did enjoy a Sunday off. I went to the Viking vs. Lions game. Well let me tell you, I never thought I would see the day where I was in purple and yellow. I was raised a Packer fan and I turned into an Eagles fan for personal reasons, regardless I have always been a Vikqueen-hater. But because of the guy I've been seeing (or whatever you call it these days) for the past year or so I've grown to accept them. I bought him tickets for the game, I know lucky guy, but I had to tag along. I actually had a great time. I think I enjoyed the ride home the most though; we sang our hearts out and laughed hysterically. It's moments like that in life that make me really treasure who I have and what I'm given.

In my last post I talked about my favorite little guy Logan, well I am just so excited because I get to babysit him more in the upcoming weeks. I love getting time with him. This week when I was watching him he put his 'knuck' in all on his own! I started laughing and clapping because I was so excited! I know it's the little things but really it made me so happy. I just really want the best for him.

I can not wait for snow! I know you all want to hit me for saying that, but really I looove Winter! I love all the activities that come with it too! And of course Christmas, my favorite holiday. I am in love with the scenery during winter, everything is so peaceful. There is always something to do during the lovely season too. I especially can't wait to go snowmobiling. One thing I'm not looking forward to is the busy season at work. We always get so slammed during the holidays. It's already starting to pick up and it will be this way till Valentines day. It never really dies down till the end of April, and beginning of June but then it's graduation time so we pick right back up. I tell ya the restaurant business is always chaotic. But anyways, I just simply can't wait for that first big snow fall!

Another thing I can't wait for is getting my braces off! I feel silly being in college and having them. But hopefully on December 27th they will tell me I can come in in two weeks or so and get them taken off! Please, cross your fingers for me!

I hope all is well in your life.

I'll be seeing you,

Amanda
