I Could Use More Days Like Today

I had a pretty awesome and productive day today. Since there was, yet again, no school today, I decided to sleep in. Don't get jealous yet. I only slept in til 8:30 this morning. I got up, had my morning coffee, and started cleaning the kitchen. I ignored my kitchen all day yesterday; therefore I had a mess on my hands! After the kitchen was cleaned, I sat down and ate breakfast.

I didn't sit down for long because 2 Christmas trees were staring straight at me, and I knew today was my only chance (well, besides Saturdays) to take them down. I didn't think twice about it and got to work. After 2 hours, the trees were down, decorations were put away, and the house was back to normal. I must say though, the house seems "naked" without them.

I got done with the trees about noon and ate lunch. I had left over taco soup. I absolutely love taco soup! I made it for the first time yesterday and cannot believe I had been living without eating this soup! After lunch, I headed towards my sister's house.

I stayed at my sister's for a few hours. There, my sister, Kelli, and I caught up with one another and our lives, and we also were entertained by the wonderful Matthew. It was so nice to get out of the house and visit with an adult! With the recent snow, I've been secluded to the house, so I was in need of adult conversation. I couldn't stay at their house all day (even thought at one point Matthew shouted out, "Yay! Amanda's going to stay the night!"). After talking for a while, I headed home. When I got home, I found Brandon laying on the couch sleeping. I let him sleep and started dinner. We had such a yummy dinner; Country fried steak, white gravy, mashed potatoes, and green beans! :) Good Night and GOD BLESS!
