i thought i'd do better

i am pretty awful at keeping up with posting. i think about from time to time but seem to never get around to actually doing it oh well.

it's christmas time again...about one week from now. i can't believe how fast this past year has gone by. it seems like every year just goes by faster and faster. last christmas was spent in florida with gregg's family. while i love gregg's family it was my first christmas away from my family and i was incredibly homesick. i cried all morning. it was ridiculous. this year will be spent in texas (where we now live..) with my family. i'm looking forward to it but i always look forward to christmas. we even have a real 7ft tree this year. i thought 7 ft might be a bit too much for our apt but it works just fine. if i can figure out how, i will post a picture of it...not that anyone reads this but at least i can look back and remember.

my quest to make friends is really not going anywhere. ha..i don't know what it is but it seems like it is so hard to establish comfortable friendships. i guess you can't really go looking for those. i suppose they just happen over time and unexpectedly..much like finding a relationship partner. however, i am hopeful as we have started to hang out with some new people...

anyway...i suppose i'm done now....weekends go by so fast..even when though i have 3 day weekends every week..they still fly by...
