pre-Christmas update

Saturday. Normally I would be jumping for joy except Saturday is just like Monday thru Friday this week. Ahh, the joys of vacation. I did reach an important state a few days ago... boredom. I hate being bored, and in reality there are tons of things I want to do, but it's more of the lacking motivation boredom... "I don't HAVE to do anything RIGHT NOW so I won't do anything," but then boredom paralyzes all movement. Probably a necessary process in life.

I've been enjoying my creative side this break... drawing, making ornaments and decoupage. I won't say more until after Christmas because most of this work is going towards presents. Last night I saw Slumbdog Millionaire, which was awesome. Such a great love story... based on three kids who lived in the slums of Mumbai, orphaned by violence. I love going to the movies. It could be one of my favorite things to do, right now I guess... in the cold of winter, California cold I know, but still chilly for us Cali natives.

The Musician and I are doing really well. He's looking at adopting a furry friend this winter... which is exciting! There isn't a day I regret having Taylor, not one day.

I'll leave to see my family in a few days, so now is the time to really prepare for Christmas. I'm only doing presents for a very select few this year... and making most of them myself, or taking things right out of my closet. I think I can only do that for sister and mom :)

The end of break will creep up quickly. I need to be sure to order books, read, blog, watch my assigned videos, etc. I have a lot due at the end of next quarter in addition to my 4 classes (which are all super intense) so I best get a move on!

Until then, I'll enjoy my evenings of crafting, listening to George Wintson and watching candles burn. I should probably throw more yoga into that mix too :)

If you're bored, you can come see me! I'm stuck at Sierra Vista on bedrest until at least tomorrow. Been in the hospital since Wednesday. Soooo bored.
