still busy with work

i have been so busy with work all month. i guess its just that time of the year for me-annual reviews, evals, paperwork, meetings, meetings, meetings. (sigh) i wish i saw in there the words "planning time" and "therapy with the kids". it seems like there is less of that and it gets pushed to the bottom of the list when it should be at the top. hopefully someday we will have more funding for education and i will get an assistant like i need. ha! a girl can dream though. going in early and staying late almost every night is not fun. ive said this before, but i would love a job where i floated around the office all day filing things, making people coffee, and doing things that didnt require my brain to bring home everything i need to be doing for the next day. but i do have to say i really do like what i do for a living and im just thankful to have a job and an income.

tyson is taking me to chicago in a few weeks as my christmas present. im super excited. it will be super relaxing. the main events for the weekend are shopping, massages, sushi, steakhouse, and bears game! im sure we will find lots of other fun activities throughout the weekend.

i had a nice thanksgiving break. visited with friends and had some laughs. family time and ate lots. loved all my adorable niece for an entire day (probably my favorite part). shopped with crazy people on black friday. had a little luncheon for my gfs. put up the christmas tree. wrapped presents. more shopping. finished wrapping presents. now im all ready for christmas and its a whole month away. im enjoying this beautiful tree and all the lovely gifts under it.

well i guess thats pretty much my life lately. i hope all you bloggers had a great turkey day and are getting excited for the joyful christmas season. love love.
