Hello, Christmas break.

I haven't posted in five days? I know, weird. I'm still loving this blog thing. But, I've just been busy.


Yesterday, I got four hours of sleep. I honestly can't remember the last time that's happened--if that has ever happened. I've never even pulled an all-nighter, not even the all-night party on the last day of high school. Anyone who knows me at all, knows I am a stickler to my bedtime. If I'm not at least getting ready for bed by 10:30, something is off. But sleepovers with Rebecca can do that to you. (Way fun, and enlightening, by the way.)


Then of course we had to roll out of bed at 6 a.m. to be at work by 6:45. With the 20-minute drive, let's just say I looked homeless the whole day. Anyway, we left the building once at noon for a 15-minute Panda run, and then ran...no, literally ran...back into work. I finally left the broadcast building at 6:45 p.m, ironically. However with 12 hours of watching sports highlights, I really shouldn't be complaining. I could tell you in detail, every highlight of the Baylor game last Saturday, and even how many people have filled up the Marriott Center at once. My job rocks. 


This past weekend also was great! I should have taken more pictures--I regret not doing so. However, it was fantastic. I heard many amazing mission stories, saw many hilarious mission pictures/videos, and spent a lot of time with my best friends. It was also great to spend time with my sisters. I really like being reunited with them and now that we're older, we can talk about something other than boys. Oh wait...that's a lie. Just look at them. It's a full-time job (for all of us) warding off these guys, so it's obviously inevitable.

Beautiful Sarah and her also beautiful friend Megan at Christmas Dance.
They're old enough to date?!

"Drop Dead" Nicole.

In all reality, we do have more mature conversations. Oh, how our late-night bathroom conversations have evolved. I love that I get to be home for two straight weeks. That hasn't happened since I graduated high school, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm still busy. So much to do, so little time! 


Now, if only I could learn the art of the famous Sharlene Hawkes multi-tasking...
