hey everyone...sorry it's been so long, but thanks to Tracey for keeping it up! I tricked that Tom Riddle thing and got it back to starting with hello. I'm so sneaky!
As much as I like December and Christmas (I know, you're thinking 'here it comes!' she's sick of it already!), it's a really stressful time of year. It's hard finding any time to relax and maybe just watch a movie at night. I mean, with christmas parties, outdoor adventures (Candy Cane lane, lights at the Leg. grounds), and shopping, it can really get to you. I've got something planned almost every night until Christmas. But don't get me wrong; most of the plans include eating, drinking, seeing friends, so really it's not all that bad after all. I can't wait until Christmas day when I'll finally be able to give out the gifts I've stressed over buying, and then lay on the couch and sleep in between french toast at breakfast and the huge dinner at night. I predict I'll be in bed by 9pm!
So onto my biggest pet peeve of the winter season so far: frickin' Edmonton drivers. I won't dwell as I'm sure you all feel the same, but I shake my head at all of those assholes that still cut me off, swerve in and out of traffic, don't pay attention and have to stop right away, and that take off from being stopped so fast that their back end practically side-swipes me. So frustrating. And just because you've got four-wheel drive doesn't mean you're invincible and can stop as soon as you think you can.
ok...I think I'm done...
So hopefully everyone's alright...Tracey now you only have final exams to worry about! Yayy! And Christine, you've only got your ENTIRE family coming to worry about. Me? I've just got the damn poinsettias at save-on to worry about. I'm so sick of Christmas plants and flowers already. It's going to be a long month....
have a good one,
casey

Don't worry about me and my family. Since I only have one bathroom my mom doesn't think that Patrick and Laura, and all of them can stay at my house. So someone will have to stay at my Granny's even for Christmas. Maybe whoever stays with my Granny will join her for her anti Christmas bonfire she has by herself every year. The holidays always bring about the crazies!!!

I agree with Casey and the truck drivers. When I drive to ardrossan I always see them in my rear view mirror about 3 inches from my back bumper and I am going the speed limit on those snow covered roads. I just say one thing and tracey knows what it is.It is not very nice but I feel better.
