The term is over......finally!

Wow, do I feel completely exhausted! 4 finals, 1 research paper and 2 writing assignments in 4 days can cloud a girl's mind. I am so happy to be taking the winter term off. I so need the break. I need to re-focus on what's important in my life. Most important. My relationship with God, my husband and my kids. All of these have been neglected, I sadly admit. I am not proud of that fact, but it is true. I have been so focused on "getting my degree".

Brian starts his new job on Jan. 3 and his schooling starts the same day. He'll be working 4, 10 hour days and then drive straight to school for night classes. I wont see him much, but I think his sacrifice(and mine) will be worth it in the end. He only has a handful of classes left before he graduates. I am so proud of him. I just love the way his eyes light up when he's talking about making some part on a machine. He's talking, and I am nodding my head, "oh yeah, babe.....uh, that's so cool". He just talks away, telling me how to program this or that. Can you tell I have learned alot from his rants? Ummmmm, no!

The girls had a Christmas concert for their school. Why am I SO sentimental? I mean, who in the world gets tears in their eyes over some little kids singing Jingle Bells, off-key and to the top of their lungs? Yep, I do. I have always been like that. Brian just looks at me and cracks a smile. He's used to it.......I guess. LOL. I have enough emotion for both of us.

Tomorrow, I am making peanut brittle for the first time ever! I love to bake, but I am not sure about this candy making business, I hope it turns out good.
