AAAaahhh!!! It Worked !!. My wax paper snowflakes to the gods sent us some real, bona-fied snow.. like 2 whole freaking inches. I was so excited when saw it at 430 am this morning that I even woke up the mr to make hii come look..("Oh, cool.. now let me sleep!") I finally feel like the black whole inside of me has been filled, and it's filled with fluffy white snow. Aah. I feel normal again. ( I will not think about the fact that it still suppose to be in the upper 50's on Christmas)
On that note, oh shit yes. It is indeed Christmas in 5 freaking days. How did that happen, I can not tell you, but what it more crazy is that this year is almost over. I can't wrap my head around. I guess we have been so busy with the house and other life stuff that the these last few months have just kind of flown on by, but I guess that is how it is for everyone. But one day at a time folks. So today let's all take some time to meditate and relax and enjoy the simple little things, like a fresh cup of coffee or being the first one to walk on freshly fallen snow, or napping. Coffee naps. Walking through the snow with coffee and coming home to take a nap. Simple.
And on another fantastical l note. the mr and I... We bought plan tickets to Ireland! And along the way we are going to be spending a few days in Copenhagan and in Iceland. Holy Fuck right?(Merry Christmas/Happy Birthday/we have been trying to take a trip Ireland for a few years/to us. So yeah) I am so excited I can barely stand it. We are leaving at the end of January so I have a month to obsess over the absolute cheapest things to do, places to go, things to eat (I am scared of the food in Iceland) and modes of transportation. (If you got any good tips, please, throw them my way!) Oh boy world, get ready!
And seriously people, chill. No need for a bunch of shopping, just make everyone cookies. IT will make everyone happy.
