Trying to get everything planned for the trip to Cheerleading Nationals is rough. I know how to plan Disney. I can plan a trip to Disney that is structured so we don’t miss anything we want to see (sometimes twice), but with enough flexibility to be spontaneous and roll with any vacation changes we decide on. Having three days of cheer competition/team involvement that we have no experience with is leaving me at a loss on how to plan.

On top of that I am trying to plan for our spring break college visits. Again with no knowledge of those areas, timing of the things we will be doing, it’s tough.

But exciting!

Nationals! College visits! Big plans in the works… Now to figure out how to pay for it all.

General Update-y-ness

The campus visit to Illinois was wonderful. Very professional. Very well put

together. Very informative. Of course I expect nothing less from a Big Ten school. But I really think the information (overload) was helpful to Princess Girl. Definitely solidified her major choice. (At least at this point). Due to locations, we will probably not schedule another campus visit until March.

I find much humor in the fact that several newer cell phones and computers were not updated with the fact that Daylight Savings no longer ends on Halloween weekend. Although my mom’s re-updated itself back to the correct time today, new guy at work is all freaked out that his email time stamps are going to be off today. It’s an hour. Take a deep breath. Totally not the end of the world.

Fabulous Halloween party given once again by J’s brother and sister-in-law. They always decorate so fabulously. The food was good. The costumes were fun. My personal opinion is our costumes were the “witty-est”! Very funny!

Work is still very very busy. Every time I start to see light at the end of the tunnel, more work is piled on so I can’t even tell if the light is a train I need to duck or not.

I’ve been waffling about NaNoWriMo. Last year the time commitment was just too much. Do I dare wade in again this year? I have just over 12 hours to decide… and still start on time.
