Home for Christmas

The semester is finally over, and I made it out with good grades to boot, so altogether I would call the last 4 months a success. I now get to spend the next three weeks loafing, before getting ready for another busy, but not quite as hectic, semester.

Our new puppy, Roxie, is amazing. She is a total spazz, and eats anything and everything including my sister's make-up pencil, but she is just adorable, and has the sweetest face, and loves everyone who walks into the room. I have started calling her shadow because she follows you everywhere you go, and sometimes we accidentally step on her because she is so small, dark, and right under your feet. She is a cutie though.

I got to read a book for the first time in several months, and have watched TV, actual television in real time, not online shows. It is all too bizzarre to live life at the pace the rest of my family has, but it is exciting. I just hope I don't get bored sitting at home by myself this week. Ash will be home part of the time so it shouldn't be too bad, but Chel has finals and Mom and Dad have work so, it may be slightly quiet.

I am helping Ash watch our neighbor Jessica tomorrow, and apparently she is a little hellion, so it should be interesting to see if she is really as bad as they say. Ash says she likes to eat some food, chew it up, and then spit it all over the floor... yippee....

Things are going pretty good, can't ask for much more. It should be a fun holiday season, and if anything, relaxing, which is just the dose of medicine I need right now.
