i forgot

new year, new girls to love!

_____________________________________

with all the world ending and being sick and having two christmases and twelve birthday parties (ok, just three, but still!), i forgot to make my new year's resolutions!

here are some:

do my homework
get as much out of my school work as possible (aka don't procrastinate so much)
don't eat fast food (as it's bad for you)
don't eat in the cafeteria (as have no money)
work out
    do bikram yoga (don't waste your classes!)
    use new suspension gear
    run (january's goal:  20 miles)
    go to the gym (for a change)
    use sauna (in case of need to warm up in this 40 degree FREEZING weather!  or stress)
call my family REGULARLY (like every normal person does (sunday 
       perhaps? wednesdays?  how do you pick a day??????)
do my dishes
clean my house (at Least once a week)
cook for the week (so don't have to eat in cafeteria)
use all new christmas and birthday presents (cooking and workout 
       stuff, plus a little gorgeous jewelry!!)
make 100 blogs this year (or more!!!)

anyways.  i like to have a few so i can feel successful even if i only do one.  so far, i have worked out for the last 4 days, i have done one yoga class, i have cooked for the week (using my new cooking stuff), and i have gone to class every day (5 days.  also, i always go to class.)

good start to the new year, i'd say!

yayyyyy!!!!

here's to some holiday cheer for ya...

__________________________________________

i'm coming home!!!!!
i may or may not be on my way right. now.

but probably not, because i have to finish a test (and those Never start on time), and i have to figure out how to drug oni into a light coma (thanks google and benadryl), and i have to get gas (and convince mikah to pay for it!)

anyways.  see you when i see you!!

oni loves working in the kitchen

arley was a little concerned about oni when he came to visit.  she was a little shy.  that, or she had to spend more time under the bed planning two people's demise(s) (?) instead of one.
he thought she "had changed" and wasn't her spunky, sassy, kill-you self.

here is how i know she has not, in fact, "changed":

this is oni's favorite box.  and the kitchen is her favorite place to play in her favorite box.  so she can swipe me with her sharp sharp claws when i am cooking (rare) or doing dishes (even rarer).

she has a habit of looking guilty.  or like she's ready to kill.

already packing!!!

only 11 more days til i make it to laramie.  i'm so excited.  i'm also going to freeze my butt off.  it was 78 degrees this weekend.
i've already started packing.  i decided i'm going to take a bunch of stuff back that i probably shouldn't have even brought with me in the first place.  like shoes.  and skinny clothes (sadly).  hopefully i will need those by the time i am done with texas...

anyways.  i'm going to be home for christmas!  and it's going to be really great!!

bedtime. aka destroy claire's attempts to have a pretty house

this is oni's favorite place to sing.  or something.  but only right after i make the bed (also rare).

see her footsteps?  i am pretty sure she hopped on about 30 seconds after i finished making the bed...
