Update

So, its been a while. Things have been busy busy here in the FLA. So today, I will make a list of everything that has been going on the past few days....

- Mom's doctor's appointments. The DR. told her that she needed to have surgery again on Monday of last week. They got her in on Thursday of last week, thank goodness. They put a wound vac in, so hopefully this third surgery will hold true to "Third Times a Charm"

- Christmas shopping. We had to get all of our Christmas shopping done before her surgery, so on Tuesday night of last week, we hit the mall. We got it ALL done that night, well except for a few little things, which we picked up on Saturday.

- Finishing grad school applications and essays. I don't think I had to work this hard to get into an undergrad program. There are essays that have been written, applications that have been filled out and now I am waiting to take my GMAT on January 13th. Can you say stressed?? Which brings me to my next item...

- Studying. Its been a while since I had to study for something. I have been studying each and every day, in the mornings, in the evenings....I just feel like I am not catching on to anything. And then I have days where I feel like I can do it, so we shall see. The Quantitative section of the test is KILLING me!

- Work. This has proven to be the biggest challenge over the past few weeks. January is such a busy and stressful time, and it just brings out the worst in people. Let's just say that, if I make it through the next month without having a mental breakdown, I will be doing pretty good.

- Trying to stay relaxed and enjoying the Holidays! I love the holidays, I love relaxing, but I keep thinking about this HUGE test and how well I have to do on it to obtain my goal, and it just freaks me out. I have made a back up plan, but I want my number 1!

Anywho, that's all I have been up to. With a party here, and a get together there, that's been about it.

Oh, and I picked up my bridesmaid's dress for Ali's wedding yesterday. Forgot to mention, that her LOVELY face will be here on FRIDAY! I can't wait to see her. Oh yea, and she is my HOT date for NYE :)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!!! :)

Random Monday

This weekend was full of festive activities:

The Rockettes this weekend were amazing! If you haven't seen them, you MUST. They were very, very tall girls and man could they dance!

I got to visit Houston and Dallas this weekend--through Skype!! I got to talk with Kelly and Joey and then the net night with Ali, who I haven't seen since, well I'm not sure how long but a pretty long time! Ali- it was so good finally 'meeting' Mat and y'all seeing me looking pretty saweet :) Kel, it was a fabulous time seeing your new home!!! Its fab for sure!

The annual Mayhew Christmas partay was so much fun! Glad to catch up with some old friends- even though all of them couldn't make it down to the Sunshine state.

We got our Christmas trees this weekend. They are still undecorated, but hopefully, this evening will change all of that. I went on a cleaning spree last night- which was def needed.

The bowl games were announced last night. And in case you missed it, Georgia is playing in the Autozone Liberty bowl in Memphis- we are facing UCF. UCF has a chance, so this may be a good game. I am just thankful that the Gaytors didn't end up getting the Gator Bowl. In years past, the Gator Bowl was for Big Ten and ACC schools. But this year, the ACC is out and the SEC is in! So, I was secretly hoping for that game for us but hey, at least I don't have to sell my tickets because Florida is playing in it. The Gator Bowl will host Michigan and Mississippi State. And, an SEC team that doesn't start with Gay and end in tors is playing for the National Championship. YAY Auburn for making it to the Ship! I hope they beat those Ducks!

Tonight will be consumed with GG and writing essays and decorating the trees! I forgot how much fun writing essays can be :)

ICE in Florida

Happy Thursday lovelies! This morning, as I was leaving my casa for work, I got into my car and went to drive away and looked through my windshield. I remind you, I live in the state of Florida, where people flee to in the winter. THERE WAS ICE COVERING MY WINDSHIELD. I had to wait until it had melted away so that I could drive to work. It was 29 degrees this morning when I left for work. No, you didn't misread, 29. WOW. The cold weather is nice in December, I guess I just am not used to it!

Early this morning I had a meeting that was a little important. I am making some decisions in the near future that could be pretty awesome! More details to come!

I hope everyone has a fabulous Thursday morning :) Stay warm!!
