Hi all. Such a busy and stressful time. Papers due, finals coming up, babysitters sick. Life could be worse though. I'm in a really good mood today, even though Patrick was here when I got home to see Tom between classes.

Friday night we had INCREDIBLE sex! I mean multiple orgasms, one after another. It was fantastic. It was definitely cigarette sex. Tom was wonderful! It was a good thing we had sex though, I started my period Saturday. :( It was worth it, and still I am in a good mood. :D

DeAnne has been home all weekend, she finally left Sunday night. Sometimes she causes more problems than I can handle. I wonder sometimes, if it's worth letting her stay with Mom and Dad, when she causes so much trouble when she's home.

Tom and I had a real, honest to God date Saturday. I mean, dress-up, dinner at the Country Club (ok so Nashua Christmas Party, but it counts). We sat alone so we had privacy and could be love. Hell no-one from second shift was there, so I knew like 2 people. Then we went to the mall and Christmas shopped for the kids. It was nice to be all dressed up, looking good, Tom wore a tie, I wore heels, we both looked really good. It was so nice to be out with the one you love, no kids. And when we got home, Dad had put them all to bed already, and they were asleep.

I wrote my English paper Sunday night, and one of my New Testament reflection papers. I will do the second one today. I also have a paper to write on my observation for Lifespan. It's due Wednesday when we take our exam. I really need to work on that. It's not really clear on what he wants. I don't think I can bullshit for 3-5 pages though.

Tom made a FANTASTIC standing rib roast and garlic mashed potatoes for dinner Sunday night. I love it when he cooks. He is so good at it, I wish he were home to do it more often. He really has a knack for it.

Tom and Patrick went to get more wood from Ellie and Tom, since we are out, and the fire really keeps things much warmer in here. We really noticed the difference yesterday when we had no wood and the floors were just so cold. I love having a fire.

Still I am in a really good mood. The fire is warm, the kids are being good, all is quiet in the house, I feel really productive, Courtney thinks I did a good job on my paper, so now I just have to revise. I'll do that between my next 2 classes. I am lovin this new Google tool bar. It's pretty cool. And Tom downloaded a new Christmas theme yesterday, it's great. I am just happy with the world today, I hope it stays that way.
