Day 359-Geeky Christmas

My mom had been telling me how awesome my Christmas gift from my sister was since September, so when it came to open it, she had my brother take pictures:
Okay . . . a blanket . . . that's pretty cool

Realizing that it's a Doctor Who blanket!!

The place settings for dinner. The goblets are
from my grandma's pressed glass collection.

Day 357-Christmas Cookies

I got to spend the afternoon making Christmas cookies with my dear friend Cecily! Unfortunately, my flour seems to have gone bad, kind of ruining the cookies. Fortunately, the fudge tastes just fine.

Day 356-Part in the Cubicle

There was hardly anyone at work today, so it was basically a party--when we weren't busily trying to get our work done.

Day 355-Magic Pill

Before I left for work this morning my dad handed me a decongestant. It worked wonders! I haven't felt this good in about 5 days.

Day 354-Still Sick

This is me. Even though I was feeling awful all day, I still stayed at work the entire day.

Day 353-Eye Doctor

Cha-ching! Those optometrists love to see me coming in their door! Once again, my eyesight has still not stabilized, meaning new contacts, which meant another exam at a different office than my regular optometrist. And someone will be getting some more money from me when I buy a new pair of glasses. Lucky them!

Day 351-UP House

Today, we went to the UP house in Herriman!






How much do I love this kitchen? Tons! I love the blue appliances, but mostly I love this:
Cutest oven ever!

I also really love this laundry room. Actually, I loved most of the house! From the awesome storage space hidden behind bookshelves to the claw-foot tub in the master bath!

"Andy's" room from Toy Story!

Day 350-Happy Birthday Jane!

Today was Jane Austen's birthday, as well as one of my coworker's, which meant that we went to lunch at Blue Lemon! I also saw 5 members of Vocal Point, including the one I used to work with back at school. Got a hug and caught up a little. I then had to go set up for the ward Christmas party.

The biggest thing was my battle against the Ricoh printer. He won the last battle, but I persevered and was victorious in the end! FOR NARNIA!!

Day 347-"Painting"

Our weekly devotional today was at the Church History Museum, so we went and then we got to look around the museum before it opened. One exhibit had this little computer where you could make a painting. The three of us interns all contributed to this painting: I did the mountains and the green deer (which is barely visible), Scott did the lovely "McDonald" sky, and Melissa did the shooting star and the pond. Then we went and played in the kids' section of the museum.

Day 341-Christmas Social

Today was our Christmas social at work today. We got free food (which was only so-so, but it was free), and listened to Elder Marlin K. Jensen talk. Plus, we got paid for it.
