December Currently

Where did November go?! Seriously the month flew by, I can’t believe that it’s December already, but I’m certainly not complaining, here’s what I’m up to:

Listening: I have been binge-watching The Good Wife, why did I not know about this show earlier?! It keeps me company when I’m working and I’ve been staying up late to sneak in episodes.  I think that I love it because Alicia’s life makes mine feel a lot less stressful!

Loving: I put up my Christmas decorations on Black Friday, it’s my little tradition.  I have been loving sitting in the living room and just enjoying the decorations.  They are a great visual reminder that this whole month is one bis celebration that should be enjoyable, not overwhelming.  Plus, I love the feeling of watching the wrapped gifts pile up under the tree, it makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something.

Thinking: After a long Thanksgiving weekend I feel like I’m moving in overdrive, trying to catch up.  My to do list is a mile long and I can’t see to make a dent in it, it’s 9pm and I have no idea what just happened to my day. This time of the year is hard because I try a lot harder to make time for personal stuff, but the work stuff and the house stuff still has to get done.  There just aren’t enough hours in the day!

Wanting: Thanksgiving break was like a tease.  I’ve been back to school for one day and I’m already counting down to Christmas.

Needing: My Christmas shopping is done, but I have this problem, I see these great deals and I just can’t resist them so I keep buying more stuff.  It. Needs. To. Stop.

Giving: Baking is my native language.  It’s how I show people that I care, and I love to go out of my way to make sure that people have something comforting, even if it’s just a cookie.

I’m linking up with Farley at Oh Boy 4th Grade, hop on over there and see what everyone else is up to this month.  I love this little glimpse into each others’ lives!
