Impatience...

I'm usually not a christmas-loving girl. Don't get me wrong, I love friends and family and all those good things, but I hate christmas shopping and all of the scheduling and running around of it. For some reason though, this year, I CANNOT wait for christmas! Online shopping probably helped, and the fact that I secured amazing gifts for all my loved ones. As I mentioned a while back, Route 29 has the cutest candy packaging I've ever seen, and I thought it would make a perfect gift for the holidays! The package shipped out next day and arrived packed so nicely:

Everything looks so good! I'd love to post more about the things I found, but will wait till after the 25th as some of the receivers are also readers ;) AND we finally got our tree up...the ornaments are gradually being moved higher and higher from the ground because of pajamas' obsession with knocking them down...

Back in the Saddle

I. am. terrible!!!

I just graduated, so hopefully all of you lovelies who read about my work here can excuse my laziness and lack of motivation as I close a significant chapter in my life. I celebrated with family and the best of friends all weekend, so thanks to all of you! I'm so thrilled to be done, but I also am experiencing that inevitable feeling of an ellipsis—if you will—a sort of...what now?

No more school, classes, projects, safety net...I am free to just float around, do my thing, do personal work, do paid work (let's hope) and just see where things go. I think I'm having a hard time with this because, well, it's refreshing! Nothing is holding me back anymore, and I have to try to keep all anxiousness aside as I plan the next journey.

I'm working on my holiday card today, which I will post later for something new and fun to peek at. Thankfully my xmas shopping is all done, things are {almost} all wrapped...how are you guys coming along?
