Today feels like it should be Monday…..I’m sure glad it’s not!!! It being Tuesday means that I only have 2 days of work left this week!!! And then only 4 days of work next week and then it’s CHRISTMAS!! OMG when did Christmas get here?? I guess I better get a move on and finish my shopping, wrapping, baking and card making!! Last weekend we went to my Christmas party and had a great time! Limos to and from home, a great dinner at Ricky's and drinks and hanging out at my bosses house!
I had a busy weekend planned for us this past weekend….but then Friday morning happened. I was walking to work from my car and I slipped on a patch of ice :( I didn’t fall down but I kinda flailed my arms and neck and back and ended up twisting my neck and shoulders funny. Oh it hurt so much. I took some pain killers when I finally got into work and just waited to see if they helped any. By lunch time I wasn’t feeling any better so I left work and went to the walk in clinic after lunch. The doctor said I pulled the muscle pretty badly and he gave me a prescription for anti inflammatorys and muscle relaxants. So Friday night ended up being a write off, we rented Inception and cozied up on the couch, which was good cuz the drugs made me really sleepy. Saturday morning I went for my spa day and I’m so glad I had booked it! I had a massage and the lady said that I was really tense and knotted up so she let me use their infrared sauna for half an hour! That was bliss! Then I had a pedicure and a manicure! So nice to be pampered for the day! My neck is still pretty stiff and sore, hopefully time and drugs will help it feel better!
Saturday night we had Josh’s Christmas party. We got all dressed up and headed to the Lodge for dinner, drinks and entertainment by the Chevelles. It was a great night despite my hurting neck. Sunday morning we went to my parents house for brunch and to visit with Jocelyn! Her and Jared made it home late Saturday night! So happy they are home. Christmas is going to be so great this year!
Yesterday was such an awesome, busy day!! Me, my mom and my sister’s friend Jamie took Jocelyn out wedding dress shopping!!! Oh how much I love doing that :) (too bad Jossy is really the last person for a while that I get to do that stuff with) We started our day at 11:00 at Bella Fiore, we picked out about 10 dresses for her to try on and we sat there with our cameras in hand!! She is so beautiful and everything she tried on looked great on her! Of course she can only have one dress…..and that dress is going to be a big secret until next summer, but I can share a few of the ‘not so much’ pile!!
We then went for lunch at O Sho’s…..ummmmm so good, glad I wasn’t trying on dresses cuz I was so full!! We then went to Once Upon a Bride and since we had a good idea of what we were looking for we only picked 5 dresses for her to model. After trying on the first 4 she took one look at the fifth and said she wasn’t even trying it on. Funny how having a deadline really makes you narrow it down fast. She has 2 dresses in mind, but I’m sure I know which one she will pick (and I LOVE it!!!) Seriously so happy for her and I know that her wedding will be beautiful!!
I'm super happy that we decorated last week for 2 reasons: 1 being that I don't think that I could possibly find the time with how busy things have been and 2 becuase I get to enjoy the decorations for that much longer!! Love this time of year (except the cold and snow, well I like the snow when I'm inside and warm and it looks pretty!!) I love how our tree turned out this year! And we already have presents under it!! And I've been working on our Christmas cards too, almost all done!
Looking forward to the rest of this week. Only 2 more days of work. Wednesday I’m taking some jewelry over to my friends house for her and a couple of friends to look at. Friday I have the day off and I think I am going to try to finish my shopping, spend some more time with Jossy and Mom and try and get a few more of the little things crossed off my list. Hopefully my plans actually come through!!

I can't believe how beautiful Jocelyn looks in that first dress! She's obviously going to make a beautiful bride. Your cards look awesome Chelsey. Hope you going to feel good soon - let us know if you want to go out for supper one night during the week.
