Maremy's Blog

Today was my last day of work at the museum in Stratford until January 5th! I'm looking forward to a bit of a holiday from there since things have been a little hectic with the move to the new site. Upon leaving today though, I felt like all of us got a lot accomplished this week. It still seems like there is a lot to move but, as I said today, it will all come together in the end.

Now, I may have a break from work but I don't get a break from how hectic things are going to get because of Christmas. Guess who has not started her Christmas shopping? ME!!! I always say every year I'm going to start earlier and guess what? Every year I start later than the year before!

I am, however, looking forward to the upcoming family gatherings. Our first Christmas is this Saturday in Georgetown at Jeremy's uncle Jeff's and aunt Rose's. This is the Baechler Christmas. On Christmas Day, we have the Allin Christmas at noon and the Fincher Christmas at my mom and dad's at 5. And after that? That's right: FLORIDA!!! :) With another storm watch out right now, Jeremy and I are very much looking forward to getting a break from the cold and the snow for a week!

I wish I could say we've been on playing some games lately, but things have been really busy! In January, when things hopefully will not be so hectic, we're both looking forward to some major gaming! First and foremost will be completing Gears of War 2. I also asked for a couple games for Christmas: "Call of Duty: World at War" and "Fable 2". I may also pick up Far Cry 2 at some point.

Our wedding plans are coming along slowly but surely. I think things will definitely pick up in the new year on that front. I did get my dress though! Hmm...maybe I'll just do a blog entry about that (not so exciting for the guys that read this but the girls...maybe you'll enjoy that). With that in mind, I won't say anymore about the dress until I write an entry about it.

Anyway, tomorrow is the potluck Christmas Party at the Huron County Museum. Jeremy and I are bringing carrot cake (made from scratch by yours truly!) and a pasta salad. I'll leave it to your imagination to envision Jeremy's role in the food prep ;). Friday is my dad's birthday so we're taking him out for dinner. Also on Friday night...we thought we'd get rock out to Rock Band with our very good friends, Amanda and Anderson! Should be a good time, as always! :)
