In less than a month

I will be with my family in Texas!!!

Jessi will get there on Monday and I'll join them on Thursday night. And we have 4 days together until Jessi and I leave on Monday night.

I can't wait to hear my mom say... "Look, all four of us are in the car together." (She LOVES us being together... and we always joke about how long it's going to take for her to say this.)

I can't wait to see where they live, and their church, and the small town they always talk about.

BABY... I can't wait to see baby. (Our family dog that is the best dog ever!)

THIS is what has gotten me through this crazy week at work. Knowing that I'm going there, even for just a short time, helps big time. That and the fact that we're going to NC next weekend. March is a month for going home. Home to NC, and home to where our parents are. (And no mom and Crystal... Texas is NOT home.)

I've been working out on our Easter set this week. I know one thing... if Marketing doesn't work out, I can have a career in flower arranging. Ugh! I've never seen so many fake flowers. In some ways this has been tougher than the Santa set. I think I was actually better at that. That was basically decorating for Christmas. This time it's using flowers and vines. Craziness. I love that my job responsibilities include so many random things. I'll be back out there tomorrow. And the sad thing is... I've gotta work Saturday for the Bunny Breakfast. I hate that during the holidays, my job becomes my life. I been so wrapped up in the silly Easter Bunny, that I haven't even thought about the real reason for Easter till just now. That's sad. I hate that! Granted, it doesn't feel like Spring, and Easter's so early this year... but still. =-(
Hopefully being at church and having the afternoon off to rest on Sunday will help put things back into perspective.
