Growing up Southern is a privilege, really. It's more than where you're born - it's an idea, a state of mind that seems imparted at birth. It's more than loving fried chicken, sweet tea, high school football, cookouts, country music, and acoustic guitars. It's being hospitable, being devoted to front porches, magnolias, the good Lord, and each other. We don't become Southern - we're born that way.

Pre-Christmas 2010
Oh My YAY its almost Christmas!!!!!! Ha, yes I just said that!!!! :) So it has finally gotten cold outside and my christmas tree is FINALLY up as you can see :) So Its finally starting to look and feel like Christmas!!!....Now if only we could get some snow!!! ;) Granted for me there would be no "hey Chilis sorry I cant make it to work today im snowed in"....because I seriously live like 1.5 mins away and they would probably tell me to start walking! ha-ha. So I've seen a few other blogs on what everyone wants from christmas so I figured I'd make one too........ I have had one Christmas party so far and I walked away with a purse made out of a REAL football!......
I Love It!!!!! :) I probably wont ever carry it as a purse but I still love it! I have another Christmas party this Thursday and its a German Christmas Party so it should be a lot of fun! And then next Wednesday I have a x-mas party at work and we're going pot luck style! YUM!!!! Which means this little girl gets to cook which that alone makes me very very happy!
Speaking of cooking I have the next 2 days off work because tonight someone from work texted me and really needed money and he has kids and its christmas time so I gave in and let him have it. And tomorrow im just off because I took off! I think I've realized a plus to being single and having no kids......it seems as if everyone under the sun is needing to work really bad right now and im just not. Perks of being alone at christmas time. Which I might add this is a FIRST for me! I have never ever spent a Christmas alone! Its sad and good at the same time. Im actually looking forward to it! A very big part of me is turning into little Miss Independent and Im really starting to think I would be very happy this way because im loving it now. But back to cooking since im off work I started up a pot of northern beans in the slow cooker and a loaf of bread in the bread maker this afternoon. Im super excited to see how the bread will turn out. Ive made beans tons of times along with cornbread and fried potatoes...mmhhmmm!! But the bread is a first so i'll let you know! :)
Side note.......Im moving into a bigger apartment in March ok not even an apartment but a townhouse!!!!! Im sooooo stinkin excited, its two floors, 2 bedroom, 2 bath, FULL KITCHEN (HEAVEN), a fireplace and only a $250 deposit for an animal next to the $500 dollar deposit where Im at!!! When I was telling my dad about it he said "why do you need anything bigger....Are you getting married?" ha-ha I of course just laughed and said no and thats why im getting something nicer and bigger. I want something thats more long term and really nice. Dont get me wrong my apt now is all brand new and very nice but I realized I make plenty of money that I can upgrade to a place thats more home felt and has room from company!! :) So please in 3 months come see me and stay the weekend! :)
Ok my Christmas list/ Birthday list......No im not being selfish I have since I was a little girl combined the two because my birthday is so close to xmas its easier to just give my one list! :) So my mac has finally kicked the bucket! I have had more problems in the last month than I ever have, my screen currently appears as that of a xray screen but im really good and reading it for some reason. So all I asked for this year was Apple.com gift cards to go toward this new mac im going to have to invest in. :( Not so exciting but it will be worth it once I get it. :) But I cant ask for only one thing so ill add "Just Dance 2" for the Wii, New Boots, Anything cookware, and how about a puppy! Thats it! :) Surely thats not asking for to much right?........Anyways nothing profound in this blog just a few random thoughts. Hope everyone has an AMAZING week!!!! <3
