T-25

Right now, most people are getting snack trays made, cleaning and sparkling their houses up, and running to the store for last minute necessities for Super Bowl Sunday. I only the other hand, am sitting in my room, staring at two heaping piles of laundry, trying to find ANYTHING to distract me from the 24 pages that I have to read and test over today, and pretending that there isn't snow falling slowly down outside my apt! If there is anything I have discovered (which there really is a ton) this year, it is that I can never again live in a place that doesn't have a washer and dryer! I didn't even know that it was supposed to snow again! That is the downfall to not having TV channels! When I woke up, I looked out the window to see this:


I didn't really want to believe that it was snow, so I opened the door and stuck my camera out...

Sure enough, It was! I'm hoping that this one doesn't stick around. We have had a brutally cold week, much like the rest of the country (except Florida...). I'm sure that I drive ok in the snow, but I am always anxious!

I had plans today of going to the gym, then doing laundry, going to sister's house for a little while, then attending a super bowl party at one of my good friends' house....now, because of irresponsible decisions this week, my plans are looking like this:


Ok, Ok, lesson learned...study early, then you won't be forced to finish up your last assignment the day it is due!

There have actually been a few things that I have discovered this week. Most of them are things that I already learned, but forgot to embrace. I cannot wait for this upcoming week. It is full of fun. I have a time set aside to help my bestie go bridal gown shopping, then it is her birthday! I'm going to take my newest lesson (study early) and put it into effect so that Thur, Fri, and Sat can be free!

I hope that everyone has a relaxing, football filled day!!!

Welcome to my *NEW* blog home! I've recently moved to Amarillo, TX! Although I end that sentence with an exclamation mark...it sometimes isn't all that exciting of a place. I do have lots of family, friends, and planning though. I'm a vegan living in a not so vegan friendly city. I love green...and the translation of my city is yellow. I have a Dachshund and a Cat that are fantastic. I teach dental assisting and I LOVE it!!! I'm a crafter and earth lover - I am striving to expand my skills in both of these things. I moved away from my love (aka, the city of PHOENIX) and started a new branch in my life tree. Here's hoping everything works out for the best!

I'll be updating my blog each Friday. As part of my new goals, I am living minimally...which includes no internet at home. I'm trying as much as possible to reduce the amount of energy I use and the amount of waste I produce...I figured that is one way. I'm really excited to share the experiences I have had so far with my move and look forward to what my years back in Amarillo will hold. Next week, I'll be updating with a whole post and pictures! I hope everyone has a fantastic week...

Until next Friday,
Kristi Jean.
