The Twelve Days of Christmas!

(The 12 days that the university will be closed, and not only will I not be at work, no one else will be at work either making work for me. Ah, one of the best perks of academia - the whole place shuts down.)

:snowballfight:

Yule..and i love Xmas eve

The 12 Days of Christmas at a large local gun shop. I have sold 2 pistols recently in anticipation that a particular super sexy S & W .357 magnum Performance Revolver will be included in one of their 12 day sales. Have to wait and see! :)

Oh please Santa, pull some strings! LOL!

Sleep lots of it.

I'm looking forward to Christmas Eve as well, that's when Santa delivers...:santa1:

Opening all the boxes on my living room floor and finding that everything I ordered is there and in one piece.

A ferry ride over to the city tomorrow!

Spending tomorrow afternoon with my bff - he's here from out of town!

Looking forward
 

Christmas dinner.

The menu is set so I will be manning the grill and smoker for a Texas style meal.

It will be a festive day with good company and yummy food.

Looking forward
 

I am looking forward to some seafood fine dining with my good friend and my buddy at the coast of Texas next week.

:cowboy:

Looking forward
 

It looks like my chef / artist friend will come visit me next year. The reason is because our mutual friend is also coming from the UK. Reunion! Yay!

My friend coming from the UK is a Texan we have been friends for 35 years. I have great photos of us in Mexico in 1980. Haha! Wish I knew how to post them. Maybe someone will help me.

I am looking forward to wearing all my cute sweaters now that it is colder outside.

I had been really looking forward to today. My elder nephew had the day off of school and I had the day off of work. We went out for breakfast and had a hearty discussion on surviving a zombie apocalypse. Then we picked up my parents and all went to the aquarium. That was super fun. Then we went out for lunch and went back to my parents house for board games.

I'm also really looking forward to tomorrow because I have an actual day off for no reason other than to have the day off. No one will be in my house and the only place I have to go is a morning appointment with my dog at the vet. I will clean, exercise, and craft.

i am really looking forward to some stability in my world again...

I am looking forward to teaching this week. I have a snow day today, so I am able to be more prepared than usual.

Not that I do not already over prepare for classes.......

Tomorrow! J is being induced so I'll get to meet the little guy in less than 24 hours.
