Been awhile!

So I'm a terrible blogger apparently...haven't written a thing since September. Let's see I guess an update is in order. Currently am working at MTS Connect as a bill payment girl. Loving the job for the most part so far. It's easy, good paying and I like almost everyone I work with. I've become friends with one of the girls there. We have loads in common and I'm very happy I met her. The living situation is going well so far. We haven't frozen yet in or little "cabin". It does suck getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom though. It's no fun to have to bundle up and go outside to the house in the middle of the night. I've been keeping myself busy lately by planning stuff. I'm too organized for my own good. Last night the girls in my small group from church got together for a girls night it was very fun. I've been planning a lot of stuff for Christmas. I'm hoping to get my Christmas shopping done very soon; I'm thinking of going this weekend to get the bulk of it done. I've been plotting out what to get everyone for the past couple weeks. I guess soon I'll have to dive in to writing up my Christmas cards, that is always something I love to do, seriously! I still have yet to decide where Adam and I will be taking or Christmas picture this year. Christmas parties are approaching quickly too! My first one is December 5th at one of my Aunts houses. Every year my Tante Margret and Uncle John have all of there nieces and nephews over(so all of my first cousins) for this gathering. It's always lots of fun. We have a big meal, a gift exchange and we play games. It's always a fun time. I have my work Christmas party a couple weeks later on December 20th; I'm not sure what to expect from that. Another thing that I am planning for is my mom's 55th birthday. I have decided that I would like to throw her a surprise party. I am hoping that I can pull it off. I need to talk to my step dad first though before I dive in too far. December will be a pretty packed month for me. I cannot wait until Christmas rolls around. It's going to be a good one I think. It's too bad that Grandma and Grandpa won't be around but i know they will still be in our hearts. I'm still missing them so much!
Let's see, what else is new? Just over a week ago I had all four of me wisdom teeth pulled. That was a frightening experience. Everyone had told me their horror stories so I was going into my surgery with very little confidence. Luckily none of their prophecies came true. I came out of surgery with very little swelling, I had no vomiting and no dry socket. It sucked having a frozen mouth though. I couldn't do anything. When I got back to my mom's I tried to drink some water and ended up spilling all down the front of me. Oops! The T3's were a big help. Man was i uncomfortable for a few days. I lost like 5lbs from my liquid and soft food diet. Let's just say I ate a lot of consume and mashed potatoes. I am very happy that I will never have to do that again!!
I'm kind of wishing that we would get a little bit more snow. I have a great ambition to build a snowman and a fort!! I also would very much like to go skating. I know that i could probably hit up a near by arena but that is never as much fun as skating outside like at the ice trail at the Forks. I'm also looking forward to going tobogganing. I'm really going to make the most out of this winter!!!
Hey and once it gets a little colder maybe I'll have to wear my mink coat!!
