^i hope you all sang the title because i did :) Ahhh i just love this time of year especially when the house is dark and only the christmas tree lights are on and the cinnamon candles are lit with a cup of hot chocolate MMMMMM if only i had my christmas cd gosh i cant believe i left that at home. Aw well, actually i might be coming home for christmas. im not positive yet. My visa expires in 11 days and we've been callin all over the place to figure out what i need to do. At first they were like okay we will just send you to london for a few days or a week to stay with their friend but then they remembered my brother gets married on the 21st and depending on how much it is they might send me back to mesa for 2-3 weeks (but im not sure if i go home if they expect me to pay the travel expenses so im kinda confused) and then have me meet them in florida -_- just my luck for vacation and then go back to italy....we dont really know yet hahah everythings up in the air, i might not even have to leave. So right now i have no idea. Anyways i got lost goin to church today. my gps wouldnt turn on and i thought i knew how to get there haha well actually i did. i saw the exit and i tried to get over but like i said these italians are maniacs and it was either make the exit and possibly dieeee or miss it and live so i chose the later and thought it would be just like america exits so i exited the next one...."wrongooo" (the grinch) the exit put me onto a differnt freeway that didnt have an exit for 18 miles and i had to go through toll booths oh my gosh i was talkin to myself and yelling "ahhhh which one which one?!!?" cuz they have a pre-paid thing in their car so i can go into a different lane and it will open automatically, like i wont have to roll down my window and pay, it just charges the thing in the car. Everything is written in italian so i was driving with cars behind me using process of elimination tryin to decide which line to get it. I GUESSED RIGHT :) i ended up drivin for over an hour through a couple little towns and reading tons of signs as fast as i could until i recognized either lago di garda/brescia/milano/verona and headed in that direction and thinking "seriously im trying to get to church help me out here!" haha but i made it to church for half of class and sacrament so i didnt miss it all just half! Oh and the whole time the light for gas was on but he said he had a reserve tank or something so that i would make it to church and back but i was freakin out cuz he said i would make it TO church AND back...not knowing i'd get lost and end up driving over 30 more miles so i was scared plus i dont know how to work the gas machines here since they are all different and in a different language and i ran out of money on my phone so i had no way to call them...geez do i gotta get my crap together! :)
"Martha-mae-who-ve-ayyy has the best lights" hahahahaha i miss all the christmas movies, i hope i can find some on TV!
I LOVE the big wooden stars. All of her ornaments are so fancy, i know you cant tell in the pics but the tree is so pretty.
Sometimes i catch myself staring at the trees instead of watching the actual tv :)
