taking deep breaths

Ok so I was in a little bit of a panic in my last post. You'd think by now I would be able to deal better with life's decisions but well...the fact of the matter is I have to have a complete freak out first, then sleep on it, mull over it for a few more days and then decide that it will just have to work out. Sometimes I wonder if I will ever be able to a more calm and sure individual...I am sure that by my recent behaviour T would say "no". The last few days have presented a solution that may solve all our worries, I cannot say more as I am superstitious but if it all works as I hope I will fill you in.

But let's talk about something fabulous...like my new MacBook Pro gifted to me from the best husband in the world. I have never had my own computer before so this is a little unreal. I think it needs a name but I am not too sure yet what it will be...but names take time. I am also searching for a laptop bag that does not look like a laptop bag. There are some really cool companies out there and once I compile the contenders I will post the links so those who need a nerd-free bag can check them out.

D-O-N-E! Done.

The packing is done! (yes angels really are singing in the background). I am so relieved that it is finished. But all that exertion of packing up our life here, dragging boxes to the truck and then cramming them into storage really took it out of T and I. We have pretty much been zombies all week, which has been great for me as I have been able to tune out the Christmas jerks that have taken over the mall while I scramble to finish my shopping.
Now all I have to do is finish off work (my contract ends tomorrow) and I can sleep, eat, wrap gifts and watch Christmas movies till my eyes turn into squares. It really doesn't take that much to make me a happy gal...

finished up work on friday and am happily hanging out in the house. actually i am trying to clean it up as it is a mess and we have a guest coming to stay! it is a friend of ours from Japan. he was the second friend of T's that i met. he super cool and let me stay with him in Tokyo even though he did not know me and he could only go on T's word. i think i won him over with my burping ability....c'mon guys love that. (i became a burping champ in school as all my close friends were guys and well...i had to be able to keep up) so i am busy being domestic and relaxing. i have some time off so i am hoping to have a clean house, use my sewing machine and read the latest Harry Potter.
