earlier this evening my family was doing the best thing in the world. Lying in our bed, all three of us, laughing. George said he wanted to go somewhere after supper tonight. Apparently, going to Best Buy 15 times a week doesnt get old.....but I said, lets go to Gatlinburg! Tonight! How fun would that be! Wouldnt it be nice if we had the kind of $$ to just pack up the car and head to a quick vacation?

well, my Christmas countdown is shot. Sorry folks, but Ive been too sick to even remember to plug in the Christmas tree this week. I think its been lit maybe 2 times. Anyway, I did go to work this week despite all the laying in the bed ive been doing. I only work for 3 hours on thurs and fri though, so it was more or less to just get me outta that bed. I cant belive i still feel so awful. Right now I am sitting in my bed with my big t shirt on under the covers. If Im like this, Im fine. I still feel pretty exhausted though. If I get up and start to move around, I feel like I just might die. I dont know whats wrong with me. The doctor said it ws just a bad sinus infection, and gave me two shots in the ass. I have a HISTORY with sinus infections. Ever since I was little. One year, I had sinusitis EVERY MONTH for a year. A SOLID YEAR PEOPLE. Thats when they decided to go and break my nose and clear my sinus cavities. I was in 11th grade, and it was the worst pain ever. I so hope that is not the path I am headed down again. Usually I enjoy milking a sickness for all its worth, but iam really ready to be normal again. I dont even want to talk about the laundry and sink situation that is going on right now since i have been out of mother/wife work.

so i guess i missed three days. I have had a good excuse though. Sinus infection. Over the past couple of days i have managed to get in two viewings of Christmas Vacation, so that accounts for something.

I feel better today than yesterday. I like the idea of laying in bed all day, but when nothing gets done, i feel like a bad wife, mother, person. I went to the doctor today and he was crazy as usual. Dr. Laubenthal (sp?). But he gave me the regular two shots in the ass, so im sure i will be fine by tomorrow.

I bought Eclipse and started reading it Monday @ around 1:00 in the afternoon, and finished last night at around 12:15. That is the longest book I have ever read in my life. I couldnt put it down. I had to sometimes, i was too lazy to go get my glasses out of my car, so my eyes were mad a me. And on the way home from the doc, George stopped off at B&N and bought Breaking Dawn for me. I dont know that i will be able to finish that one as fast.

I know this is cheesy, and maybe anyone reading doesnt want to hear it, so go check facebook again, thats what id do ;) But I guess George was getting annoyed by how much i let him know of my love for the Twilight saga. So he came home last night with a huge grin on his face, and handed me a gold envelope. It was a cute little card talking about love, and at the end he wrote "Im no Edward, but I love you so much." Which got me laughing. How crazy is he to buy me a card over a fictional character! Then, just to add icing to the cake, he said "one more thing..."and handed me two keychains from New Moon! HAHAHAH!!
I had to write this because its very easy to forget the sweet things your husband does for you, and so easy to remember the irritating things he does. I hope next time I think hes truly annoying, or that he doesnt love me, I will come read this :)

ROLLLL TIDE!! So we won the SEC championship. Amazing.

In 25 days of Christmas news:

I ate a stale snowman cookie that we baked yesterday, and again listened to Magic 96.5. Not much to report today.

Oh, in fat news: I will be losing weight (running like a maniac) starting Monday. I am not saying I am a huge fatass or anything. But my friend Jenny posted a pic of me from last week @ a wedding we went to. I compared it to one of me from a year ago, and I look about 15-20 pounds heavier. Uh, the older your kid gets the skinner you are supposed to get. I was skinnier after I had Ryder than I am now. Ugh.

WE FINALLY GOT THE TREE!!! Now it feels like Chritmas! Drumroll please, there was a bunch of Christmas activity tonight!........


4th day of Christmas: Got our Christmas tree home, and decorated! Ryder and I baked Christmas cookies(i got the cookie cutters, and sprinkles in the dollar bin @ Target :). And George and I went to Old Navy and got our stockings--ALL the stockings there are girly. We found two that we could work with, and one for me. THEY WERE $1 though! A BUCK! So we would be idiots to pass that up!
