What Today Brings: Fever

So lately, I've been in this slump.

One big thing to learn about me: I start basically everything with great zeal and energy then about three months into it, I just seem to "get too busy" aka I become much lazy and more focused on things that don't matter- like watching four episodes of "Friends" in a row when really I should be going to bed or cleaning my room. so- that's something I'll be attempting to conquer over the holidays.
Also, I honestly believe I have Seasonal Anxiety Disorder. In case you didn't know, that's a REAL diagnosable disorder, and it happens to people (particularly those who live in colder, cloudier areas of the world) during the winter months because they aren't getting enough sun. I believe I was thoroughly affected as a child, growing up near Seattle, where really it rains pretty much 9 out of the 12 months. I never ONCE took for granted sunny LA and, when it rained, while everyone else loved it, I was basically crying; however, I am very aware you must know the bad to understand the good, but still. I miss my warm weather and my long days and short nights.

I think writing about the good stuff will boost me up :)

THANKSGIVING
Ahhh yes, wonderful day set aside just to fatten us all up. Love it. My family and I went to Spokane (Washington) to spend the weekend with my grandparents and the weather was honestly the best we've ever had for Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember! No snow, and temperatures in the 40s I believe! How nice for being so far north! My grandma Drika was a saint the entire time- she hits at about 4'8" and cooked every meal for us all by herself. Believe me, I'd help but she always refuses help whenever we ask what she'd like us to do. Mostly I slept, read, and ate the entire weekend- oh and I caught up with a few friends! Good stuff, really :) here's some pictures (obviously)
