it's almost Christmas!

it's almost Christmas! i'm so excited. my family is coming to Waco Christmas eve to spend Christmas day with me. i am working Christmas eve and Christmas day but i'll still have time for my family and i'm actually really excited to work at the shelter for Christmas. it's such a special time for families and the clients are really excited for Christmastime. it's gonna be great to see them all happy and actually getting to spend Christmas with their kids while being in a safe environment.

on the other hand, i still have lots to do:

• buy a few more gifts
• wrap ALL the presents
• clean my place
• laundry - and lots of it
• pack!
• and lots of stuff left to do at work...

and after Christmas, i'm off work until January 5th and i can't wait! my family and i are going on a cruise! there's ten of us in all. we went on a cruise over Christmas last year and this year we'll be going over New Year's. We're visiting four ports, including Roatan, Honduras, Jamaica, and Cozumel. i'm really looking forward to it :)

now, i'm on my way to Temple to spend the day with a friend. later!
