Day 225: Almost the New Year

Today has been a great day. I thoroughly enjoyed myself on the last day of 2011. First off, I got woken up by a phone call from James which was just a few minutes before I was planning to wake up anyways so that worked out well. Then I went to see the new Sherlock Holmes movie A Game of Shadows with a bunch of really awesome friends this morning. After that, we went out to lunch and ate some really yummy food, I also saw a friend I hadn't seen in awhile and some coworkers at the restaurant as well which was pretty cool. We came back to my house and played board games for most of the afternoon which was a lot of fun. After that, I made spaghetti for dinner and James came over. We ate dinner, my dad joining us for dinner and all three of us watched the movie in the picture above. It was an excellent way to kick off the new year and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Talk about a very memorable day.

Day 224: Fun Times

Today has been a good day so far. I woke up this morning to a phone call from James. It was nice to hear from him and tonight after work he is coming over to hang out for a little bit with my family and I. I am also going to work this afternoon. I will be working on the fitting rooms so I hope that it isn't too terribly crazy. I have just been relaxing at home watching t.v. this morning and also got to sleep in which was nice. I also saw two of my friends get married yesterday and it was such a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception. It was so cool seeing two people I have known for awhile get married to each other.

Day 223: Wedding and Work

Today has been a great day. I worked early this morning and got a lot done. I also saw James at work, it was really nice to see him there. I am pretty tired after work but I'll live. I am also going to a friend's wedding today to see her get married to another of my friends. Then I am going to be helping serve at her reception. I have had a good day. I also painted my nails the color in the picture and it matches the dress I am wearing to the wedding.

Day 222: Day at Work

Today has been a great day so far. I slept in this morning and it felt so nice. I had a migraine all day yesterday so it felt nice to not wake up with one this morning. Then my dad made eggs, bacon and toast for my family for breakfast. It was really yummy. I am off to work shortly because I got called in early this morning. I don't mind getting some extra hours at work. The day will go by pretty quickly anyways because I am in one of the busiest departments today. I hung out with James last night instead of playing frisbee because of my migraine I had. I just felt like relaxing not running around and sweating a bunch. That would have just made my migraine worse. But I am looking forward to the next time we play.

Day 221: Day After Christmas Rush

Today has been a great day. My sister painted this picture for one of our friends and it looks so cool.She is very talented and has many talents. Painting being one of them. All that I have done today is work. I was also going to play some frisbee tonight but I have a really bad migraine today so I decided to not go play frisbee. Instead, I am going to just relax and hang out with James. I really don't feel like running around sweating on a really bad headache today. So I decided to hang with James instead. It has been a fairly easy day at work, not too crazy. I ended up on register most of the day because it was pretty crazy on the registers. I also took a break with James because he was working today so we took a break together. It was an enjoyable day at work today.

Day 220: CHRISTMASTIME :)

Today has been a great day. This morning we had a short church service and it went really well. My dad's message was really good and powerful and really hit home about the meaning of Christmas. The true reason for Christmas is the birth of Jesus, the Savior of all of those that have faith and believe that He died, was buried and rose again on the third day for the sins of the world. I truly love this time of year, not only for the presents which are nice, but for the very fact that God sent His one and only Son to die for my sins. I have had a very memorable day, I spent today opening presents, hanging out and having a fun day with my family at first. Then James came over and he and I exchanged presents as well. It was a lot of fun spending the day with my family and James.

Day 219: Christmas Eve

Today has been a great day so far. I got to sleep in this morning. Then my dad made breakfast for my sister and I and it was really yummy. I am so excited because it is the day before Christmas. I absolutely love Christmas time so I can't wait until tomorrow. I also did a little bit of shopping today, bought myself some new boots from Kohl's because my other ones are starting to fall apart and I had a good discount off of them so I went for it. I also bought a Christmas present for James' dad this morning. I hope he likes it. I also hope that James likes his Christmas present as well. I am so excited to spend Christmas with my friends at church, family and James as well tomorrow. Also, I am working later in the day and it is a short day so it shouldn't be too bad.

Day 218: The Early Morning

Today has been a great day. I woke up early this morning to a phone call from James. Then I slept for about another hour and woke up again. James came over for a couple of hours and we just hung out and watched some t.v. together. It has been a good morning. Now he is out shopping for my Christmas present with my sister. My sister is going to help him pick something out for me. I am just relaxing at home watching some t.v. with my brother. It has been a nice relaxing day and I have thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Day 217: Fun Day With Friends

Today has been a great day. I worked early this morning and it was pretty busy. I also got a lot done at work today. The cash registers didn't have any stuff that people didn't want to put back when I left because I put them all away during the afternoon. Then this afternoon and evening I spent hanging with friends and playing some board games. James also came over for a little while and it was nice to see him again two days in a row. I enjoy all the times I spend with my awesome friends, family and James. It is so cool how God has blessed me with all of them. Now I am enjoying my night of playing a Disney Think Fast game with my friends. What good times. This picture is an awesome band called Hawk Nelson, yet another awesome band.

Day 216: The Work Day

Today has been a great day so far. I slept in this morning which was nice. Then I watched 27 Dresses which my sister bought me for my birthday. It is such a cute movie. I am now just relaxing at home until I work this afternoon. I also got called by James my wonderful boyfriend this morning and we talked for quite awhile. I love the morning phone calls from him, it just makes me have an awesome start to my day. This picture is a cd that my mom and dad got me for my birthday. It is Kutless' Christmas cd and I absolutely love this cd. If you are looking for an awesome band this is my very favorite band ever. They are such an awesome band.

Day 215: MY BIRTHDAY :)

Today has been a great day so far. It is my birthday so I went out to breakfast with my dad this morning and it was such a yummy and fun time. Then I have just been relaxing at home with my mom and sister this morning as well. I got to sleep in this morning which was nice. Later on, some of my friends are going to come over and hang out for a little while. Also, tonight I am going to celebrate with my family and James is going to join us for dinner and gifts tonight. I am having a great day and I am feeling very blessed with some awesome friends and family today as well.

Day 214: All Day Work Session

Today has been a great day. I worked almost 9 hours today so that was good, made some good money today. It wasn't too terribly busy and it was pretty enjoyable because a good portion of time I spent bagging people's clothes for the cashier. That was basically all I did today but tonight I played some epic ultimate frisbee with my amazing friends again. It was so much fun and such an enjoyable time. Then we went out to eat afterwards to hang out for a little while. It was such a fun time and I have some amazingly awesome friends to share all these good times with. I have certaintly been blessed in the friends department. They make my life so memorable and give me such epic good times always.

Day 213: Sunday of Rest haha

Today has been a great Sunday. I talked to James this morning on the phone while getting ready for church. Then I taught sunday school and told the kids about the Christmas story which they seemed to enjoy a lot. They made a Christmas card for their mom and dad which they got to individualize the way they wanted it to look. It is so cool to see the creative minds of these kids and give their parents something to remember their whole lives. I also went out to lunch with my family and some friends of my family which was a lot of fun. Now I am just chilling at home waiting for my date with James tonight. We are going out to eat together somewhere, not sure yet and then maybe hanging out afterwards until I have to work tonight. It has been a busy but a good Sunday.

Day 212: Shopping Day

Today has been a great day. I had Ashley and her sister Sarah spend the night last night after my birthday party and it was so much fun. My birthday party was also a lot of fun. I spent lots of time with my awesome boyfriend and my awesome friends. I am just so happy they are in my life. They nake me feel so special and I feel blessed to have them in my life. Then we did the last shopping for my mom today as well. She will love her gifts so much. I also used most of a gift card that I got from Ashley and her sister for my birthday as well. This picture is such a cute picture of my dog and it took awhile to get her to pose properly for the picture but when she did finally pose I was like yay. It has been such a great day and the ending to my day will be work tonight but I am only working 4 hours tonight so it won't be bad at all.

Day 211: Great Day Off

Today has been a great day off so far. I got to sleep in this morning then I was woken up by a call from James. He was going to come over and make lunch but decided not to because he didn't feel as good as he thought. He thought he was feeling all better but he is still feeling under the weather. I am hoping he feels better by my birthday party tonight because I don't want him feeling bad the whole time. Then I talked to my bestest friend, Ashley as well, it was so nice to get back in touch with her. She is coming to my birthday party so I'll be able to see her there. I am very excited to spend time with my friends, my sister and my boyfriend tonight at my birthday party, it will be so much fun.

Day 210: One of my Favorite Bands

Today has been a great day. I worked this morning and got a lot accomplished. I worked in the shoe department and actually recovered the whole department, put up signs on shoes that needed them and also put away all the shoes behind customer service and on the registers that people either returned or didn't want. It was a good day at work and now I am looking forward to going to lifegroup tonight. Then tomorrow is my birthday party and James and my 2 month anniversary as well which is awesome that they fall on the same day. I can't believe I am turning 22 in a few days. Also, I took a picture of this poster in my room because Anberlin is an awesome Christian rock band, if you're looking for a good band here it is.

Day 209: Short Day at Work

Today has been a good day so far. I got to sleep in this morning and got a call from James which made my morning. Then I ate a yummy lunch of a burger my dad cooked out a few days ago. It was very yummy. Now I am just hanging out at home until work this afternoon. I will be working fitting rooms and ready to dominate and make everything look good for the closing crew tonight. I love making things look good for the closing crew so that they can get out at a good time.

Day 208: Work Day

Today has been a great day. I worked this morning and got a lot done. The fitting rooms looked good when I left. Plus I saw James at work today as well which was nice since I hadn't seen him in a couple of days. We are going to hang out tonight and he's going to cook me dinner. It'll be nice to hang out with him again because we haven't hung out just the two of us in a little while so I'm excited about it. I enjoy all the times I spend with him a lot. I also enjoyed work today because it wasn't too crazy and I felt like I got a lot accomplished.

Day 207: Disney Day YAY!!!

Today has been a good day so far. Pretty soon my family is going to go to Disney to see the awesome Christmas lights. I am pretty excited about going there. I also found out I got a 90 on my final math test so I am ending that class with a B which is awesome because I am not a big fan of math so the fact I did so well in that class is a good thing. I thought this picture looked so cool. I got woken up this morning by a call from my awesome boyfriend and we talked for awhile on the phone. It was a good conversation and I enjoy that kind of wake up call. I am just very excited to go to Disney today for the day. Unfortunately, it is raining but it'll be okay, I'm not afraid of the rain.

Day 206: Busy Sunday

Today has been a great Sunday. I had church and sunday school this morning. Unfortunately, James had to work this morning so he wasn't able to join us but oh well. This was an awesome looking tree that I decided to take a picture of at church. After church, my family ate at a pizza restaurant, it was so yummy. I absolutely love pizza. Then I tried to help James pay his charge card but it didn't work so he had to pay it at the store. After that I took about an hour nap and got woken up by James saying he was coming over to get his wallet that he had given to me to help him pay his charge card. After he left, I got ready for work and headed off to work until midnight tonight. It was pretty slow in the store and so we got off a little earlier than scheduled but I didn't mind one bit. I'm just excited because off to Disney tomorrow.

Day 205: Day of Fun and Shopping

Today has been a great day. I went shopping today with my dad for my mom's Christmas presents. We saved quite a bit of money on the amount of stuff we got. I like this candy cane that I have hanging on my window. It looks so cool and at night it lights up which is awesome. Other than shopping today, I am working all afternoon then tonight I am playing some ultimate frisbee with all my awesome friends. It will be such a good day and I am totally looking forward to frisbee tonight since it has been awhile since I have played. Then tomorrow will be a good day as well. James won't be at church unfortunately because he got scheduled to work in the morning but he may come over in the afternoon for a little while. Talk about a good day.

Day 204: Fun Day

Today has been a good day so far. I finally took my last final for school this semester and so now I am officially on Christmas break which makes me so excited. I also got to talk to James which also made me happy. Unfortunately, for some reason either his phone or mine is acting up so he isn't able to call me but I can call him which is very weird. I'm not sure whether it is his phone or mine but I hope it gets corrected soon because it is rather annoying. Tonight we are doing a game night at my house with all my friends so I am pretty excited to just relax after the stress of a test and hang out with my wonderful friends who are coming to hang out.

Day 203: Relaxing Day Off

This picture just looked so cool so I decided to take a picture of it. It has been a nice relaxing day at home. I got to sleep in again and got woken up for a short time by a phone call from the boyfriend. It was nice to get to talk to him today. It feels weird that I haven't seen him since Tuesday and may or may not see him in the next few days. I love today because it is nice and cool out as opposed to pretty warm a couple of days ago. I love the cooler weather because it makes it feel like Christmastime is actually coming up soon. My favorite time of year is Christmastime between all the time with family for traditions and all the time with friends bringing in Christ's birth as well. This time of year just always makes me so happy and in such a good mood all the time. I am also excited because I am one final away tomorrow from being on Christmas break from school as well.

Day 202: Accomplishing Day

This has been a great day. I have gotten a lot accomplished today. This is a cool Christmas lighthouse I found when shopping at Walgreens and I just thought it looked so neat so I bought it. Now today, I did all of my household chores. Then I cleaned my room and made it look a whole lot nicer than it did before. Then I decided to wrap all the presents for my family and James as well and so I got that done. I also made cards for each of them so I got that done as well. I have gotten a lot done and I have no school tonight because my last class was Monday for that particular class so my evening is free as well. It has been nice to have a day to get a lot accomplished and I enjoyed being able to sleep in as well. I was tired after yesterday of putting up the tree and working so it was nice to have a day in between to sleep and get stuff accomplished.

Day 201: Christmas Preparation Again

Today has been a great day. I worked early this morning and had to take my brother in early this morning to work as well. I am a bit tired but it has been a memorable day. After work, James came over to my house, we hung out, played video games and then took the dog for a walk around the neighborhood. After that, we went out to Lowe's to get our awesome Christmas tree in the picture above. I love this time of year and decorating the tree is one of my favorite parts of it. It was a lot of fun decorating the tree with my family and it turned out beautiful. Christmas is absolutely my favorite time of year because of all the time spent with my family and the celebration of Christ's birth. Presents are cool but aren't my favorite part of the season believe it or not. I just love all the traditions such as putting up the lights with my dad and decorating the tree with my family and overall just being with my wonderful family.

Day 200: Day Off and Day of Fun

This has been a great day so far. I have been at home all day studying. I also have watched a movie as well. My final test for my math class is tonight so I am looking forward to that class being over. I am just waiting until class tonight and I also have a meeting with a lady from the college I am transferring into that is in charge of the early childhood program at the school. It will be a good resource and I need her to help me decide which classes to take in the spring. I am so excited to be done with my current college and be able to start my actual classes towards my degree.

Day 199: Sunshine Sunday

Today has been a good day so far. I woke up to this sight this morning and just had to take a picture of it. I am excited about today, church, sunday school and then my dad and I are putting up the outside Christmas lights on our house. I love Christmastime and putting up the lights is one of my favorite things to do. I also get to see James again today and I believe we are spending most of the day together so it'll be a good time. It has been an overall good day and I look forward to some more fun today.

Day 198: Busy, Busy Saturday

Today has been a great day and it has also been very busy. I worked this afternoon and worked on the fitting rooms all afternoon. It was pretty busy at work but I got to help lots of people and make the fitting rooms look good for the closing crew so it was a very productive day at work. The closing crew should have a good night of work. I enjoyed my day quite a bit because we had a good afternoon crew working and I also got to see James at work all afternoon as well. I helped out in the back of the store quite a bit because that part of the store was hopping today and there was only one person back there so I was making myself useful wherever they needed help. I enjoy helping all my coworkers out. Also, tonight I have a ladies banquet to go to and James is going to help and be one of the servers so I get to see him tonight as well which I am excited about. This has been an overall good day.

Day 197: Flowers in the Yard

Today has been a good day so far. I went to school this morning and my partner and I did our presentation in class today. It went well and the class seemed to really like our presentation. I had a good partner in it and we did well presenting together. Now I am just relaxing at home for the afternoon and tonight I am going to a movie night thing then we're playing some ultimate frisbee tonight. I can't wait to play some frisbee, I get to see all my awesome friends and we get to have some fun playing frisbee.

Day 196: Day of Fun

This has been a good day so far. I woke up by a phone call from James this morning. He invited me out to work out with him. I mostly just watched him workout and some lady tried to tell me how to work out. I was just like I don't want to be as buff as you so your advice isn't going to help me at all. We then did a cardio cinema thing where I did the stepper thing while watching a movie and that was pretty enjoyable suprisingly. Now I am waiting for him to come over and we are going to hang out this afternoon. Then I have lifegroup tonight so I am looking forward to it so that I can see all my awesome friends. It has been a good day so far and I am looking forward to lifegroup as well.
