Oh Sunday

Hello all,

So, what a weeeird day! Firstly, I went to bed at 10 and didn't fall asleep till sometime after 3:00 a.m. I was sooo frustrated I was exhausted and just on reading overload and really needed the sleep. I knew I needed the sleep SO badly which I think was why I couldn't sleep at all. *insert not impressed face!* So, I ended up waking up at 7:40, having to leave by 8:15, so I had to rush to get ready, needless to say my hair did not get straightened, glasses were in place, and defiantly did not put effort into my makeup, but meh, who are we trying to impress really? Got to church drinking lots of coffee, knowing that I had a ton of work to do once I got home. Called and cancelled my waxing appointment for after church due to limited time/energy. Cut my finger washing dishes, how does the handle of a mug just rip off and slice open someones thumb. Jeez. Anyways, had some ... interesting news regarding Mike coming home for good next week. And yeah, let's just say, I'm a wee bit stressed with this final paper, exams, getting ready to go to Ontario and just everything. One day at a time, deep breath :)

So, as if the postal service realized I really needed a pick me up/de stresser, my phone rang. And low and behold, the mail man was holding a parcel with my name written on it at the front door! So I buzzed him in, and got my first Christmas present of the season! Who knew the mail came on Sundays? The gift was from my dear Lacey. Such perfect timing. I teared. Look at what I got:

She saw on my status that I needed motivational chocolate so she gave me one of my favs, toblerone! I don't even know if she knows its ones of my favs or not! And she made me this adorable frame. I laughed so hard because that was the picture I posted a few days ago of us when I was writing about my love for her LOL. It made me so happy and I felt so loved and just made me whole day feel a million times better.

After that Mandy came home and excitedly asked me for the 100th time if she could give me her gift. I finally caved and opened up the 'light' box she handed me. And guess what was inside? A pamphlet that said I had a pre-paid facial and pedicure for whenever I do so choose! She got one too so we will have a date together in the new year. She said I can even split them if I want two 'spa' days. So excited! It's funny to because she has apparently had this gift for a while, and I was whining the other day saying I wish someone would give me a spa present someday and that I'd always wanted a facial. Oh how she guessed right!

Yay for presents! I'm just tickled pink!

Love you girls,

Thanks for brightening up my day!
