So...it's been awhile since I last posted, so I thought I'd give an update. Today I don't work, so I'm cleaning today, it definitely needed it. Took out the garbage, did some vacuuming (going to finish in a bit) then washing the...like 5 dishes that I have, making my bed, and taking a shower before movie night. Laura and Theresa were tired after work today-since people were getting back from holiday travels and did all their shopping today...go figure. So we postponed movie night until next week-probably Monday again. So tonight I'm going to have my own movie night! I also need to work on putting people's information in my address book for when I shut down my facebook!! I'm getting really excited for it. I would do it early, but I still need to get people's info and then post mine for a couple days before I close it down.

I also want to give up soda for New Years...my reasoning is that it's pretty much just like alcohol-I don't need it. Although I think it will be much more difficult to give up than alcohol-because I never was too big of a drinker-unfortunately a few years ago I did go to parties and drink more than I felt comfortable with because that's what others were doing. But soda, I like the taste, and the caffeine, and the sweetness/sugar; so it will be more difficult.

Anyway, I should get back to cleaning so I can shower and then settle in for a relaxing night!

I just got back from seeing Avatar. I am literally speechless. I kinda want to say it's the best movie I've ever seen. James Cameron is my hero. Everything about it was amazing. I can't wait to see it again in the theater. This is what going to a movie is supposed to be. It was 3D too, so I was moving with them onscreen-that has never happened to me before-with any movie, 3D or otherwise.

It was simply beautiful, stunning, magnificent...*sigh*

This may sound silly or weird because it's "just a movie" But it really was amazing.

Update again...

I have 2 days off! I don't work until Saturday, then I work 4 days in a row and then not again until the 26th, so I'll have several days at home.

I'm going to see the movie Avatar tonight with Jessa, I'm really excited-that movie looks super good. Generally life is pretty boring right now, but it's nice to feel more laid back and relaxed-not so much like a roller coaster. It's nice to just glide smoothly, at least for awhile.

This may sound a little weird, but I've been thinking about my "dating life" and have been doing some thinking about courtship...since I feel more mature and "grown up" than I used to...which obviously comes with age, but I feel like I need to focus on myself, and I also feel like I'm ready to find my future husband-I feel ready to settle down, not do the casual dating thing.

I feel like....God is calling me to be closer to him. I'm trying to live to be a better person. I don't drink anymore, I don't smoke, I am REALLY trying not to swear. I'm trying to be more patient with people and circumstances and realize that I would not be given any task that I couldn't handle.

Anyway, I have some laundry and cleaning to do, so I should go. Can't wait for Christmas!!
