Razzle Dazzle 'Em

Sorry to the five of ya'll that read this for not posting lately. Here is a quick catch up:

* went home to NC for Christmas- we drove- not too bad- felt like nomads eating out of a cooler only stopping 2 times to pee in the span of 19 hrs crossing 7 states

* stopped at my parents' house first- lots of fun- tried on some bridesmaid dresses- ate dinner with the Jackster and Nick- went shopping- hung out with the fam- saw my ever so cute puppy Boomer

* 2 days later- next stop Adam's house- ate lots and lots of food- really good but not good for you food-- took some pictures- hung out with the fam- went to Ashville to hang out with a bunch of old college friends (great times)- did a good amount of sleeping in

* 3 days later- as Willie puts- On the Road Again-- this time 16hrs still 7 states- arrived home and pretty much slept all of the next day away

All in all, the trip was great I wish we could have stayed longer. Every time I go home I have a great appreciation for the beauty of North Carolina, I wish I could put it in a little bottle and just open it whenever I started to miss it.

Work has been bonkers lately- main reason for not posting. When I got back no one had touched my "job" in over a week- even though they were completely capable of doing so- maybe not as well but still.. so I had all of that to do in the span of 2 days because the end of the year was coming and it all had to be done plus every other company was going to be closed for New Year's.
This week was busy for a completely different reason- I've even had to bring work home with me at night - which is unheard of- I worked about 6.5 hrs of over time in the past few days. But at least I am getting good pay for it.

I haven't really set any resolutions for the New Year- there is always the stay in shape thing- but that's more of an on-going battle. Adam and I have set a goal though to dramatically reduce the size of our debt so I guess that would be my resolution/goal for the year. That and to get a Westie puppy :)

This weekend should be fun, we are going on an outing with Chris and Katie tomorrow to Homestead Heritage and then to the Waco Co-Op to kind of celebrate their 1yr anniversary- I'm looking forward to it.
