I'm in mid-term cleaning mode and I've spent the last 13 hours cleaning our house, and I'm not yet done!
I head back to Eugene tomorrow morning so Robbie and Hanni can have their night at the opera. Isa and I are planning on spending the evening watching movies, playing Barbies, and eating Taco Bell! We will probably pass out at 11:00p.m., only watching the New Years festivities for half of the world. I suppose I'm getting older when all of that sounds rather fun.

Hello all! I'm posting from work where we are finishing up a physical inventory of the store. We are also celbrating the graduation of one of our co-workers. Wierd to think that some day this part of life will pass!
We head down to Eugene tomorrow to pick up Isa and see the Nutcracker. I'm hoping it's one of those high point experiances!

Well, it's nice to have Robbie and Isabell home, although I don't feel like I've gotten to see them much. Actually, I did get to hang out with Isa a little this morning, as we decided to keep her home due to a nasty cough.
Robbie is doing amazing things with all his kids at school. I doubt the parents will ever let him leave after this weeks activities that include homemade snowglobes and had print felt ornaments!
I have my fourth of five finals tonight. So far so good as I've passed the almost to the end mark. Only one last6 project to put together by 8am tomorrow! All will be good so long as the coffe keeps flowing!
We're starting to put together our holiday plans, wich may include having Destin to stay for a few days. I must say I'm rather looking forward to the idea of a house full of kids!

Well, I just crawled in from a long day working at school. I don't think I've seen Sat. Night Live since I was in highschool!
This was a crazy day for me. I headed out to school at 8:30 this morning. Unfortunatly, a block away from school, I realized that I had forgotten a crucial part of my project. By the time I took the train home and back again, I finally got started at 10:30a.m. At 10:30 p.m. I crawled out of the school, not yet finished (though close!) with the same project! I lurked around downtown searching for a place to get a burger and a beer. Unfortunatly a Sat night in the city usually requires a cover and stringint ID check. I did finally find something that did not require either of the above, and was able to get some dinner before catching the last train home. (NOTE: to all my family who will panic that I was a lone female out late at night, I just want to point out that weekends in a large city are actually SAFER then all those times I'd walk home at night from downtown Eugene to Whitiker.)
I'd better turn in now. I need to head out again early in the morning!

Hello all! I'm taking a few minute break between classes to post.
I'm plugging away at my final projects, but I'm making very little headway, even though I've completed four already!
Robbie and Isa have been wonderful - clearing out for hours on end so that I can study. They went downtown and did a lot of "Christmas in the city" things over the weekend, and we caught the Zoo Lights at the zoo. All quite fun!
We're hoping to make a trip to Eugene this weekend to get a tree and our decorations, although my attendance will depend on the amount of work that needs to get done.
At this point we (me!) miss our family and our old house and fireplace. Tis' the season!

Hanni got back from Iowa safe and sound on Monday night, and stayed through today. Isa has been sick and she stayed over so Isa could have a few days off school to recoup.
I'm baring down for finals right now. I spent a few hours after work doing a project that has the potential of being very cool, so long as I haven't bitten of more then I can chew!
Robbie had a nice birthday. He had cupcakes with his kids at school, and then his supervisor and the office manager surprised him with some cake. This was a year of movies for gifts, and we are currently watching Hidalgo.
Isa wants me to say to all of you: "I love you, na na na na!"
