December 7th - December 11th

December 7^th I slept in to try and make up for some of the sleep I didn’t get on the weekend. Then I spent some time knitting. I got more Christmas packages! I was so excited to get more! I worked on editing pictures and blogging until I had to get ready for fire school. I had school at 630, it wasn’t all that exciting, just registered and was told what to expect. I’m so happy Zach joined our department so I have someone who is stuck with me through class. And one of my friends from high school, Jill, is also in the class. When I got home I started my homework and worked on knitting some more. Once I got sick of those things, I wrapped some more gifts before heading to bed.

On December 8^th I spent my day doing three things: blogging, studying and knitting. Oh and I watched Biggest Loser with my mom. December 8^th was also Justin’s presentation day. I was so happy to hear that he was finally done with it!

Day 261:

December 9^th I woke up to a fire call. I’m pretty sure I was half way up the stairs with my pants in hand before I actually woke up. It was just a line down, actually a tree on the line. We had gotten crazy snow and wind during the night. It was so pretty though! So I got ready and went outside and took some pictures, then I came in and worked on my homework for a while. I did some photo editing and knitted before calling it a night

Day 262:

snow!

Day 262:

windy!

December 10^th shortly after I got up Jason called to see if I could go pick up his kids and watch them for the day. Since I needed to mail out my Christmas cards anyhow, it wasn’t a big deal.

So, I picked up the kids and went on into to town to drop my card s in the mail. When I got back home I spent some time studying and knitting before taking a nap. I tend to stay up too late and get up too early. When I woke up I got ready and went to class. I actually enjoy our fire classes. After class I went to Arby’s and got dinner then drove home. On my way home it was a pure whiteout. It was AWFUL.

Day 263:

a gift for me.

Day 263:

December 11^th I got up and cleaned my bedroom upstairs. I got it all done! Well, mostly all done. And it took me most of the day. Bah. I guess it was a necessary thing to do though. When I was done cleaning I spent some time studying and knitting.

Day 264:

Justin on the phone.
