A New Day

I love the fall. I love the warm cozy smells - caramel, vanilla, cinnamon, pumpkin. I love watching huge snowflakes fall, even if they melt the second they hit the ground. I love the excitement of the approaching holdays - thinking of the perfect gift to give, looking forward to spending some quality time with family, and of course all the delicous treats : ) I love all the holiday parties I have coming up - even if I need to find an ugly Christmas sweater AND a black-tie event dress. I love staying in on cold nights and playing games and drinking lattes. Mostly I love it all!

So here's to enjoying the rest of November and December in a new home, with new and old friends and family, with no studying, no busy season, and lots of fun times!

I may be a little early on my holiday sentiment, but believe or not Thanksgiving is next week!

Studying....

Sorry for leaving the blog unattended for so long. I am sure everyone is tired of being scared everytime the check the site for a new entry....

One more week until my last exam (well hopefully last). I have put off studying far too much this time around. As a result I am in now in cram mode for my exam. Today has been successful so far. Woke up at 7am and basically studied straight to 2. I quickly ran to the grocery store for some milk and other essentials than picked a coffee to get me through the second half of my day. (Thank you Stace for the thoughtful gift a Caribou gift card!)

Blaine is hunting in ND with his brother this weekend. Hopefully they have some luck.

So here's a quick recap of the last week or so: We went to GF for a Sioux hockey game. I thinkg I enjoyed watching it more this time than ever. Even though they lost, it was just so great to get a chance to go back for at least one game. I miss Sioux hockey. We also hit up my favorite local bar - always a good time. We got new furniture for our bedroom and the living room. But we decided to return the coffee table and end table - they were just too bulky. But I love our bedroom set! It actually feels like we have a grown up room now : ) I can't wait to be done with this stuyding junk so I can have fun decorating our place... We went to the comedy club again, but the headliner wasn't as funny this time around. I guess thats about it! (There is also a dresser with a mirror - hard to get a 360 pic ; )

Brief as it may be, its better than nothing. Back to studying.

PS Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!!! I hope your half-marathon goes well for you guys!
