Yesterday was just one of those days… Way too busy. And I most definitely did not have time to smell the roses pumpkin candles. (By the way, did you know that two pumpkin-spice candles from Walmart can make any room smell like a Thanksgiving treat?).
Today probably won’t be any less busy. In addition to getting ready for a huge presentation that I need to give next week at work, I’m also receiving my yearly review. I’m not worried about the review. I’ve worked hard, so it should be a good one. The presentation, on the other hand, scares me something awful. I think I’ll need to treat myself to something special when that’s over! (Any ideas? I’m cheap, so I’m thinking a pumpkin spice latte will do the trick!). 🙂
Probably the only thing keeping me sane this week has been hanging out with Jillian Michaels. Not literally, of course. But I’ve been faithfully working out to her 30-Day Shred DVD, and I can already feel my endurance rising. It’s really good for handling stress too. After a crazy day at work, it feels really good to scream at the television while punching the air. 😉
Anyway, this is really short and random, but I had to pop in to say: There’s only two weeks left until Thanksgiving!!!
What are you all doing to prepare for the Thanksgiving Holiday?
I just lit all the Yankee candles in my house!
On my side of the family we actually give gifts at Thanksgiving instead of Christmas so I have actually been wrapping gifts!
I didn’t realize Thanksgiving was only 2 weeks away! Ah! I guess I need to get on the ball and dive into my recipe books! My familly is pretty hard set on having the same old stuff, so I need to convince them what I plan on making is tasty!!
Haha…Jillian Michaels is perfect for encouraging the release of stress in a positive way. 😉
LOVE the candles!
Hang in there girl…it’s FRIDAY! 😀
I am counting the days!! I usually make a stuffing, so I don’t have much prep until the day before the event. And then, I spend the whole afternoon/evening in the kitchen. But the trade off is that the whole house ends up smelling great!
Hope you treated yourself well and that every thing went well at work 🙂
