Well today is Saturday. I didn't get to bed until 2:00 AM, but still got up at 8:00 AM after only 6 hrs. of sleep. I must be making up for the 10 to 12 hrs. I was sleeping the first three months of my leave of absence. Actually, I think I am just not depressed any more. Perhaps I am a little anxious, because time to get back to work is only two and one half months away. My typing is really comming along, but I am really dragging my feet on learning the computer. Maybe I should start learning Microsoft Office before trying to learn EZ Grade Pro. I have all kinds of helps for Microsoft and only one manuel for EZ Grade Pro. Maybe I can get Lauralee to help me after she learns. I guess this is turning into my blog instead of a family blog, but that's O.K. It's kind of fun to have a blog, although I cant's wait until I know how to use my digital camera and load the pictures on the computer. ( Have I said that before? I think I have.) So far I have the unassembled Christmas tree in a box in the living room. Maybe I'll get it set up today! Since reading on Tiffany's blog that the twelve days of Christmas has a religious meaning, I am excited to put my twelve days of Christmas ornaments on the tree. I have alwawys loved that song, hence the Christmas tree ornaments. Some of the ladies in my ward have a Jesus tree. The tree has ornaments about the birth of the Savior on the tree. I think that's a great idea. Since I have a small tree also, I think I will turn it into a Jesus tree. Another friend of mine has an angle tree which is also a great idea. I am really getting excited to go to Tiffany and Josh's house for Christmas. Since I had such a good time last year while I was still teaching school, I should have a really great time now that I am on a leave of absence and much more relaxed. Well I had better go. I have all my Christmas presents, but need to wrap and fit them in a suitcase.
