Thoughts for the afternoon!

Ok I have to explain this picture! I was looking at Betsy Johnson fantasizing about her dresses. I have wanted to buy one forever but cannot justify spending that much money on a dress at this phase in my life. However, I saw this one and want it SO bad. I just don't know where you would even wear such a dress...especially here in lubock. So I need someone to invite me to some fancy cocktail party this spring so I can justify buying this dress with left over Christmas money!! :) Isn't it amazingly cute! I think so!!!

So I have no class Thursday or Friday and it is wonderful. I have one client Thursday but that's it! I have been cleaning our apartment, studying and doing yoga today and it has been so refreshing! We have been going going going so much lately and it has been really nice to have some time to myself today.

Being back in Lubbock has been nice....but I have been SO exhausted lately it is ridiculous! We have been so spoiled the last month by having NO responsibility & I think being back in the real world hit me hard! Going from sleeping in until 10:00 and shopping or reading all day, to getting up at 7 and studying and sitting in class all day has been a bit of a reality check! However, I think Lance likes the new exhausted me b/c this is the first time in our marriage that I am actually tired enough to go to bed when he does!

This weekend we are heading off to Abilene for a wedding. We are going to stay with Jason & Lindsey & the new Girod's will be staying there too! I am beside myself with excitement about some good face to face details about the honeymoon! :) I haven't gone this long without talking to Betho since I was on my honeymoon and it is terrible!!!! I miss our daily conversations. I have a small group of people that I call several times a week and some of my poor friends are probably so ready for Betho to come home so I will stop calling them every time I get in my car to go somewhere! Being so far away from so many people has made me very very close to my cell phone. If I am not studying or working on something I have to be on the phone chatting with someone! That probably means something negative about my personality that I can't just be alone with my thoughts haha but I just love a good chat on the phone!

That's all that's really going on right now. I am really enjoying being back in our little apartment and getting back into the swing of things here in Lubbock. Lubbock is starting to feel a little less suffocating and a little more like home and that is nice. Don't get me wrong, when we leave here I don't thing either one of us will look back but I am really starting to feel adjusted to the change and that has been nice!

Happy Winter! The wind chill was 17 here yesterday and I have only gone outside 2 times today. One was to take down our Christmas lights....we are those losers trashing out the complex with our Christmas decor in Mid January! oops!
