the ups and downs of today

i made crockpot chicken today

and it was a fail.

chicken, carrots, potatoes, onion, a packet of chicken gravy.

how could that not be good?

but it wasn't.

the chicken was dry.

i thought about throwing it away.

ronnie didn't even try to act like it was good.

not cool.

but on the upside,

i did get to rock out my new dress

thanks to the new blog i follow

that i mentioned here.

she had it on and my friend at work and i decided to buy it.

plus it gives me a great excuse to bust out my

new birthday shoes too.

sa-weet.

what else...

i find myself wishing for the weekends.

work is not fun,

 but christmas plans are.

we have shopping day

cookie day

4 family dinners

and ugly christmas sweater party.

i'm looking forward to it all,

so work really gets in the way.

speaking of work,

i'm looking for a new venture.

again.

well maybe.

i might stay where i'm at,

but in a new position.

so basically,

its all up in the air.

but i wouldn't mind some positive thoughts

being sent my way.

and while you're at it,

throw ronnie in there too.

his B I G test is this saturday.

the one he has to pass

to be done with school.

i would really love it if he passes.

cross your fingers

and wish us luck.
