Christmas is almost upon us!

I was lazy this weekend my dudes. I apologize. There was so much Christmas celebratin' to be had with my girly friends that blogging just kind of fell to the back burner. Nothin' like staying up till almost 2 in the morning watching "Fools Rush In" and laughing about nothing and everything. Awww friendship. The fuel of life. In other friendship news, I ran into one of my high school best friends the other day and it was so great to catch up for a couple of minutes! I ALSO get to hang out with my other high school best frennnnnn in about a week or two! I can't wait! Sigh, what with gift exchanging with the bffs and Christmas Sunday, this weekend was absolutely lovely. The Christmas program at church is always my favorite. Hearing about a thousand Christmas hymns all in one hour is just the greatest! Anyway, do any of you notice anything new round these parts? Eh? Eh?? Yupp. I totally just redesigned my little space here even, though, I promised I wouldn't for a while. I just couldn't help myself, though, spending hours redesigning everything is just too much fun! Tell me your thoughts! I, for one, am pretty pleased with the outcome. :) There are still a few minor details left that I want to tune up, but otherwise, this will be the new look for LCF until I get the designing bug again. Which, honestly, will probably be in another month or two. ;) All my tabs are still the same, they've just been moved from underneath the header to my right side-bar so go give 'em a gander.

In other news, it has now been a full THREE weeks since I lost my phone. Nope, thine eyes dost not deceive you, you read that right, THREE WEEKS! I have to admit, the first couple of days were really hard. It felt akin to living life without a toe. (Not that I know how that feels;) After the first couple of days, though, it actually started feeling really nice. Being disconnected is actually sort of calming and relaxing in a surprising way. There are still moments when not having a phone can be challenging, though, ie when I need to urgently call a family member with one of my MANY questions, or when I want to go on a run because um, I ain't gon run outside without no phone when there are potential murderers/rapists on the loose! Obvi. ;) Anyway, maybe once the holidays are over and I have a little more money in the bank account I'll be able to just go out and buy a new phone, even though it'll kill me. Sigh...why is my memory such rubbish?! Why do I have to loose everything I own?

Whelp, friends, this will probably be my last post for a couple of days. Unless, I decide to do a quick mushy 'the meaning of Christmas' is glorious post on the 24th. Otherwise, though, I'll be checking out of Blog Land to get into full on Christmas celebration mode. :) I hope you all have a truly spectacular holiday and enjoy your time with your families!

Much love! Happy Holidays!
