Winter Break

You know what I like about being a student?
You can have things like Winter Break and Spring Vacation. Those terms don't mean a thing to you when you've got an office job.

It's Winter Break. Hooray.

It's been snowing all week in Corvallis {which I love}.

But it's making nasty weather for my planned trip home for Christmas {which I don't love}.

I am nearly done with all my Christmas shopping. Good for me.

I've resisted the peppermint white mocha {for the most part} and even been to the gym a couple of times.

I'm still trying to swear off sugar until after Hawaii in February but I anticipate that will be especially difficult over the next week.

A girl can dream, right?

Almost There

People.

I am one week away from being done with finals.

And then I might blog here until classes resume. January 12th.

I will probably only talk about my struggle to avoid the fatal peppermint white mocha and copious glasses of wine at holiday parties, which I have written off in attempt to banish the cellulite I see has taken up residence on my thighs.

I must be getting old because along with that, I have gray hair. A lot of gray hair. My husband said he could SEE IT WHILE HE WAS STANDING SEVERAL FEET AWAY FROM ME.

Hellloooo???

Is that something you should say to your wife?

December + January Plans:

*Annihilate cellulite

*Banish gray hair

Salud.
