it's Christmas time in the city

Ho ho ho!! It feels so good to be in the Christmas spirit!! it's been easy these past few days. tons and tons of snow has literally been DUMPED onto the Pacific Northwest! Friday at work we didn't have to show up until 10(our center normally opens at 6, i usually have to work at 8:30). Saturday and Sunday i was pretty much snowed in! then on monday work was CANCELLED altogether! not only was our center closed, but we still got paid for a whole days work! i definately was not complaining about that! i took the day to lounge around the house and cook things i've never made before! last night i mixed bisquick, salt, pepper,and italian seasoning,coated some chicken in it,and then baked it. Best. Chicken. Ever. i amaze myself sometimes.

so i think i've found a place to live. the girl that i babysit for has an extra bedroom in her house in downtown tacoma. she's gonna take care of all the utilities,cable,and internet, and rent is pretty cheap...in exchange for me helping out with her boys a couple times a week. i really don't mind that, since i'll probably just be lounging around the house anyway. i just don't want to be a crutch or for her to just assume i'm gonna watch her her kids some night. so we'll talk about that before i move in...but she's pretty easy going and i'm sure we'll work something out.

today is the last day of work before winter break! i have Dec 24th-Jan 1st off. this is the first year i haven't worked retail and i'm looooving it! I'm not doing much on Christmas...just going to my parents house and hanging out, opening presents,eating delicious food,and petting the dog. can't wait!


Merry Christmas everyone!! Have a fun and safe holiday!!
