just when i thought life couldn't get any busier...
i was slapped in the face with more 'busy'.
.
recent events include, but are not limited to:

.
layoffs at deseret book -
several of my good friends were involved. thankfully, i was not, but i am heartbroken for those that were.

pre-thanksgiving thanksgiving dinner
a realization of who and what true friends are made of
friend's engagements and wedding planning
wedding cake commitments
disdain for rudeness & unsportsmanlike conduct in real life
a delightful scavenger hunt with dear friends
a rekindled love for the cullens

.
that that
that certainly is not all... and many of the a fore mentioned happenings were politely documented and will be posted soon with more details.

but in the meantime... i can't believe its december already! it looks like early october outside. i'm praying for some snow to get people (including myself) in the christmas mood. heaven knows we all need it.

yes, we need a little christmas...
right this very minute...
it hasn't snowed a single flurry...
and santa, dear, we're in a hurry...

So much to do and be done! And I miss you - it looks like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving (I wish I could have tasted just one of those golden brown rolls).

P.S. I'm having a little itching to see the Cullens in the theater. Maybe I better go with you, because Jason surely won't step foot inside a theater where they're being seen.

Sounds like fun! Good for you, PS I tagged you in my blog, see my blog for details.

Shanna, belated thanks for the comment you left on my blog. You are very sweet.

My old DNews co-worker Leigh Dethman works at DBook now - she too missed the layoffs - so sad for all your friends.

Shanna....it was so good to see you the other night. I hope you have a great Christmas! We really should have a high school, party or dinner thing sometime soon!
