Thanksgiving has come and gone.........

Whew! I'm tired, full and not ready to go back to work even though I know that I have to. Over the weekend I got a little jealous over, Am. Yes Amber you!!!!! :) It's a good thing though. I love cooking and entertaining. I love decorating and doing crafts. It just never seems like there's enough time for me to thouroughly enjoy those things in life. I do enjoy them, and I cherish every one of those moments. I just wish that I could be a stay at home mom. (It doesn't matter that I don't have kids. I could still do it!) I would have enough time to cook and clean everyday. I could do arts and crafts. I would have more time to stay in touch with friends and family. It just seems that life just grabs hold and speeds off. It never slows down. Oh well. Life has different plans, right?

Well, I had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I got to see my family at my Grandma's, and the cons and white trash didn't show up! Yeah!!! I think one of them was actually in jail. Too bad I missed them. I wasn't sure if I was going to make it through the holidays without them. (sarastic tone was used in the forementioned sentence) I ate, ate, ate and ate some more. I'm sure we all did.

We did have to take our rottweiler, Moose to the vet on Wednesday. He's been limping a lot lately, and we couldn't take it anymore. We searched for a vet that was open on Friday, and we found one. Sad news though, our poor baby has hip dysplasia. It's only in one hip, but it's still not good. He's got two different medications that we have to administer for 2 weeks. Then we have to take him back for a follow-up appointment. I just feel for him. So.....our plans for another puppy have temporarily been put on hold until we find out all we need to know about the big baby.

I also made my first Craigslist deal this weekend. I traded a few pieces of jewelry that I just don't wear anymore for a truck full (not an exaggeration) of tile. Even if I don't use it all on this house or our house we will build in a few years, my dad can use it on his rent houses. I definitely was thrilled this weekend. Go me! My husband wasn't very thrilled though because she wound up living 2 1/2 hours away. Oops! My bad. I guess I should get all the information next time. Oh well. I'm still thrilled.

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and I'm sure you're looking as forward to Christmas as I am. Maybe life will slow down a bit here in the next few weeks. Nobody wants to pay for pictures when they have Christmas presents to buy. I'm still excited about photography. Don't get me wrong. It's just wearing me down. I just need that surprise door to open with all different opportunities!!!

Have a great one girls!
