4 AM...it took me until 4 AM to finish those ornaments.... :xx: At least they turned out better than I thought they would...though they definitely could have been a lot better had I started them earlier. I hope the recievers of the ornaments like them anyway... I hope the snow tomorrow doesn't make...

"God, I need a job like...4 months ago. PLEASE. I know You're faithful...HELP!" I know how you feel....I'm in the same boat.... The neighborhood is practically a sheet of ice from the downpour we had on Sunday right before a huge temperature drop that night... Unfortunately since it's sno...

Officially Iowa and Wisconsin (about half my life in each one). Unofficially Illinois...I'm not sure whether to count it or not though since I'm only temporarily staying here....

I think I already know why...

Tough decision...probably cherry cordials

What's your favorite ornament on your Christmas tree?

Trying to undistract myself so I can work on an application while my cousin is napping.

Wow, I have to send this to a few friends of mine...that was awesome!

Somehow I've come to dread the simple question "How are you doing?" lately...usually I'm not completely sure how to answer it.... I hope we can get a chance to take my cousin out in all the newly fallen snow tomorrow...maybe this time he'll let us actually build a snowman without wrecking...

I feel so much better now that I'm not in a car or on an extremely crowded bus or train...I spent well over seven hours traveling today. I'm so drained....I don't think I ever want to travel that far on a bus during peak travel time again. At least I think my headache is just about gone.... *debate...

Too bad you didn't do this during the summer when I was cleaning the dorms which included emptying the recycling on the floors...I probably could have given you a ton of them....

...a time to be thankful for all that God has given us...and many things He hasn't given as well. (Not that we shouldn't be doing this every day of course....)

I was just taking advantage of the layover between train and bus by dropping something off for the "tree of warmth" at the school from which I recently graduated, chatting with a friend at the school bookstore, and wandering around the city finding lunch. Now I'm using the train/bus statio...

Juno was interesting...

Warm freshly baked chocolate chip cookies rock!

You should put tuna in it then...it tastes better that way!

*tries to come up with a question to make her comment not totally pointless...*

Um...um....which state has better cheese: Wisconsin or California? (Sorry, it's all I got at the moment...)

Heh.

Thanks for explaining, Laura.

Yeah...thanks from me as well, Laura....

I knew ice cream probably wasn't the best choice for a dessert considering how cold I am already.... It was so worth it though!
