No More Teachers, No More Books

I'm exhausted. I had to write a work related licensing exam today and it took ALL my energy. I've still got over 2 hours left of work and I feel like I could go to sleep right now and not wake up until tomorrow morning. I HATE taking tests! It's so stressful and for this one I really did not take enough time to study and prepare. Honestly, I'm not sure how I did and I won't find out my mark for 3 weeks. Nice...so literally RIGHT before Christmas I'll find out and if I failed....well, that will suck. Damn. Thankfully one of my collegues wrote the exam as well so we can stress about it together. There was one good part of the stressful morning though. We took an extra 1/2 hour on our way back to the office to do some shoe shopping! hee hee!

It's December (which I'm sure you are aware of) and the madness is beginning. We're basically booked every single weekend until Christmas. This weekend is my office party which includes an overnight at a ritzy hotel (on the boss..yay!). Next weekend is filled by my husband's work shindig, and a party I'm hosting with my sister for our mom's 65th birthday/retirement which we're hoping is still a surprise. Then I have to work the following weekend and then it's Christmas! Somewhere in there we have to get a tree, which I would like to be sooner rather than later, but looks like it's going to be later. We head off into the woods to cut down our own tree, and to be completely honest, while this was cute and fun for the first couple years, I'm pretty much over it now. I still like a real tree, but I'd rather just head to the tree lot and pick one out. My husband insists it's our tradition though and since he's sentimental about absolutely nothing else, I don't have the heart to ruin it for him. Anyway, my long winded point is that it take more than just a quick trip to go pick out a tree, we need to schedule in a few hours and that's why we haven't found time to get it done yet. I'm going to try to at least get some other decorations going this week so we have something up.
