we bought our plane tickets to Halifax for Christmas.
we'll be in Heffilax and New Glasgow, and in between visiting the fam, friends, and scoping out the housing and job markets.
no trips to new brunswick planned, but for special people, trips to moncton might be arranged :)
we're both super excited. my mom is coming here on the 8th of december for a few days, and then we'll be home on the 17th. it's going to be cool, because i don't even know where my parents live anymore, the layout of their town, or what their house looks like. it's going to be new to both of us.
excited!!!
tickets were reasonable. my parents said they'd pay for mine... instead they just paid for both of our tickets out, and keith bought our tickets back. except he didn't. he used his aeroplan miles and it ended up costing him about $10.00 for both our tickets... and $137,000 worth of points.
!
i already have my christmas decorations up here. i don't know why i'm so excited this year... i guess i just know it's going to be great. my sister e-mailed me today asking what keith wants for christmas. so cute! they had so much fun last time she came to visit.
less than a month 'til we leave!
oh man. i'm stoked.
and my mom is coming... not living close to your family makes them super cool when you do see them. i'm actually excited to introduce her to keith and reconnect with my uncle who lives down the street but who i never, ever see. he got good reviews last time.
and, i have tonnes of pictures to post.
work sucks ass... we have huge meltdowns here every couple of weeks... but life is still excellent.
keith spent last night at his parents house. i expect him home sometime this evening. it's stupid cold outside, so i hope we stay in for dinner, and a movie without subtitles so i can knit or something.
office christmas party is on saturday. we accidentally double booked for both of our office christmas parties, but mine wins... since i don't work in the office equivalent to a bingo hall anymore. i would have gone to both if they were on different nights... because my dress freakin' rocks. that's right. freakin' rocks.
okay... enough with the hysteria.
