Ahhh... Christmas

I have to cay that I am completely in the christmas mood. I am listening to the Josh Groban CD Dad and Sharon gace us last Christmas and I have a pumkin spice candle bravely trying to pretend it is a fireplace going and I am so realxed. This is not how my day was supposed to go. It was supposed to be a crazy hectic day... until I fainted at the table at Cora's Restaurant.... oops. There were some nurses at the next table that kindly cared for me and patted me with wet paper towels. haha... I got free orange juice and taost though.... Anyway. Matt was in the middle of trying to change the tires himslef which wasnt going to well either so he gave up and was on his was to our mechanic to get the tires changed. I told him to keep going..who knows when we'll have time to do that again. So I enjoyed the comapny and the breakfast at Cora's and I was feeling a lot better. Meanwhile Matt stopped off at Walmart to get some cash and he was in such a hurry that he forgot his cash.. thanksfully a nice Matt ran after him and caought up to Matt just as he was getting in the car and gave him his money. We just seem to run into the nicest people. I mean really. Anyway. Once Matt was done all of us girls had made it to Wilmont church where a 10,000 Viallages trade fair thingy was ahppening. We perused for awhile I couldnt find anything that really fit into the budget and I was getting tired.. thankfully Matt came in time. Then he took me home and I cleaned up a bit so I could actually relax. Matt cooked some lunch and then he went to Rudi's birthday party alone. I thought I should just stay home and relax. I am really enjoying it...it has been such a long time. I'm reading.. snacking... puttering a bit but enjoying myself immensely. Sometimes not feeling well is a great ooportunity to relax. :)
Anyway. Work has been going really well. I have been working a lot! Which is good because then I dont miss Matt so much. I think that this is his busyest semester yet and I think it is a tough one. He is working hard and doing his best so that is great! Other than having something to go to or do every night we are having a great time. I hope yyou are all enjoying your time preparing for Christmas I wish someone would just come here and surprise me by decorating my apartment for Christmas... I am all thumbs when it somes to that stuff. anyway... my candle is working for now and I think I might turn it into a centerpeice.. I just have to pick up some supplies and time :)
Have fun decorating and I love you all!
Amanda and Matt
