Too Fast, Too Fast!!!

Grrr....Christmas has done it again. Sneakily it seems to meander it's way closer until about November it hits you "WHAM!" right in the side of the face while you were thinking, "What am I going to do for Thanksgiving?!" I am just realizing that we have only about 2 weeks left of school until Thanksgiving and then we have exams the week after Thanksgiving, meaning....lots of time off from work because of school and holidays and fewer checks between now and Christmas. Grrr...I knew I should have started my Christmas shopping earlier this year.

I am not however, going to let the fact that I am about as broke as a wagon with no wheels defeat my holiday spirit! I have a couple of surprises up my sleeves and I will concentrate on pulling those off while concentrating on not concentrating on the fact that I'm broke! :)

I have to say that this holiday season has been pretty exciting with the Texas Tech vs. Texas game and Halloween the day right before. By the way I have some great pictures of the pumpkins that my roommates and I carved. I have to say that mine had the smallest pieces to cut out and looked cool, but Natalie's was the neatest looking while Katie's was the cutest looking! (Can't really call a vampire eating someone cute, lol). We saved the pumpkin seeds and I tried baking them but....well...let's just say that they weren't how I remembered!

Overall I feel that I have a lot to be thankful for this year. My family for always being there for me. Matthew for being my friend and listening to me when no one else understands where I'm coming from. To both my roommates who even despite differences I wouldn't trade for anyone simply because they are great people! And to my best friend Jess, who can always make me laugh, is the best person to go shopping with and very exciting to watch football games with and who understands my love of the Twilight Series!

I love you all and am very thankful for all of you being in my life!

Love,
Kasey
