* How do you like the new look?! It's clean and fresh with more space to upload large photos and a personalized signature to boot! This is all thanks to a wonderful young mind that I happened upon a few weeks ago. She redesigned my blog without charge! What a gem :) Thank you Francesca!
* If tomorrow really is the end of the world, we have a whole lotta Christmas treats to eat tonight.....
* My birthday was WONDERFUL. I felt so spoiled by all of you. Gifts, messages, phone calls, and cards. It was non-stop LOVE and I thank you for making me feel so darn SPECIAL! xo
* I can't believe that Gossip Girl was LONELY BOY all along!!! Who knew?! Last night we watched the series finale and I'm missing B & Co. already.
* This morning we woke up to a serious thunderstorm - loud BOOMS, big flashes, and pouring rain!!! It was such a wonderful wake-up call at 5 a.m. this morning. And I'm not being sarcastic. When you're in the desert, rain is always welcome and enjoyable :)
* Exams are MARKED. Report cards are FINISHED. Week one in January is PLANNED to a "T". Hip, hip!
* Today after school I went to get a mani/pedi with Heather and Emily. We decided to orchestrate a "Sisterhood of the Traveling Nails".....with all of us sporting a cranberry colour for Christmas! Emily is headed to Kenya/Ethiopia with Shannon and Heather is off to Scotland with her fiance. I believe the "substance" of this make-believe tale will have to come from those two ladies. I'm not sure what material I can generate during a Kuwait stay-cation......
Speaking of which....we are officially on a two-week holiday from school!!!! And although we will be staying right here (and my heart hurts from missing a much-needed "Christmas Back Home"), I am thrilled to have so much quality time with the best husband ever. I know that our lives will become much busier in the months to come and I can't wait to soak up our final weeks of "just us two" before our little lady joins us. We have plans to decorate the nursery and guest room, practice driving (in fear), prepare the hospital bag, go car shopping, and RELAX.
Right now Phil is painting the guest room and openly thankful that we don't have to hop on a plane this evening. I am also in bliss on the sofa - happy to be resting my achy-as-ever legs. Tonight we look forward to the final week of The X Factor!!!!
Safe travels to those of you traveling over the holiday!

Try to do 'nothing' as much as possible for the next few weeks. 'Nothing' doesn't happen that much for about 18 years after that! xoxoxo LOVE YOU
