Crazy Busy

Things have been pretty stinkin busy lately. Here are some ups and downs and the going ons:

• Still training at work and I'm liking it more and more. I've had to re introduce myself to sunrise though which has been pretty stinkin rough. I'm surviving though.
• Finals are next week and I'm thinking this is going to be my best semester yet as far as grades are concerned. And after this it's officially the start of nursing schoool.
• This Sunday we (accidentally) slept in, made breakfast, and watched Saving Private Ryan (love love). Nick had to work that afternoon so I spent some time with the Stika family. We had mom's amazing meatloaf and watched Griswald's Family Christmas which is poppa Stika's favorite movie. Had us all laughing for a few hours :)
• I've don't a lot of Christmas shopping which has become quite expensive and hurts my heart (and bank account) a little bit. Sure is fun to see a pile of presents wrapped under our tree though.
• Our big Samsung TV just pooped out on us which means we will be purchasing a new one before Nick goes into withdrawl shock. He's about at that point. Yikes.
• I am working my first 12 hour night shift this weekend which will be interesting, and heading to the Stika Family Christmas Party a few hours after I get off. Sorry in advance family for being the cranky little thing I might be.
• This Friday Nick and I actually have the whole day off. We'll be heading up to Salt Lake for the day for some shopping, doing my background check for school, the temple, and dinner celebrating my sister in laws birthday.
• I have been making some cute scarves (I'll have to upload pics) for Christmas. I go through phases of crafts :) Hopefull I'll be in this one for a while to get lots done.

How are you all doing? So excited for Christmas?? I sure am.
