Home Stretch

Currently, I am sitting at the top of week 13 of classes. 4 more weeks of class before finals which means 8 more class periods for three of my classes and only four more for another. Wow! It seems like it was August just yesterday. And some days, I wish it was.

Christmas is coming soon. I have no idea what to get most of my family for Christmas, let alone the mister. He's never any help for ideas either. He always says "I don't want anything, but I need socks." Ok, so I get him a package of socks but that is NOT a Christmas present. I don't like buying him books, because books are a very personal thing. And his parents always get him books. Books he doesn't really read. He works hard all day at a computer, entering in numbers, and analyzing statistics. From what I've observed, all he wants to do once he gets home is sit on the couch and relax. He does help me cook or do dishes or clean a little a bit. But some nights he goes to the gym. He exercises for at least 45 minutes a day, 6 days a week. If only I too had that ambition. Anyway, you can kind of see my dilemma at what to get him for Christmas. I'm sure once I go shopping, I'll find something that will be so perfect it will be hard to resist.

So those are my thoughts today, simple. I'm just trying to get done. Getting done with school is my primary concern these days. I have others as well, like maintaining my relationship with my husband, doing some reading/professional development, and worrying (of course), but school is the goal. I think I'll cry the day I finally get my B.A. And then go out and party like it's 1999!!! (And no, I'm not too young to fully get that reference. Almost, but not quite.)

  1. Hi Kyrstin...I thought I'd pop in from over at Tame's blog. She is so awesome so I thought I'd check out some of her buddies as well. Hope school goes smoothly for you. As for hubby, they never make it that easy do they? Brookstone's and Sharper Image always have neat gift ideas but other than that I'm afraid I don't know him so can't suggest much.
