Uh oh

One month from today I have my thesis defense. Oh dear. I think I need to finish it before I can defend it. This week was my fall break...ah...fall break. It would have been a perfect time for some thesis writing. Instead it was a perfect time for doing anything but thesis writing.

Here's some things I've been doing this week:

Taking a self portrait on the side of our un-made bed...




Having a Monday fun day with my buddy after picking him up from the airport...




Making my first roast. It turned out delicious...




And I purchased a big mama pumpkin for my carving extravaganza on Saturday with friends. Would it be cheating Natalie if I blinged it out with jewels instead of carving? (I saw some really cool blingy pumpkins on one of my blog friend's posts.) You can check them out here.



So I've done a minimal amount of homework but I also did things that will make the upcoming weeks a little easier. John and I have breakfast burritos for all of next week and some lunch ones too, all of our laundry is done, my teeth are clean and healthy (per my dentist) and I've made a game plan. So not all is lost.

I've also gotten to watch my ladies on the food network. I'm already making my Christmas list. I told John last night that I want a Sandra Lee Semi Homemade cookbook. I love her. I'm going to start coordinating my outfits and color scheme of our kitchen too.

I'm considering ending our friendship right now. This second. I HATE Sandra Lee. Hate her. I try to change the channel as fast as I can when I know she is on next so I don't have to see or hear her. I get stuck with her on commercials though. She's sneaky.

I think a blinged out pumpkin is fine. It's significantly less messy and dangerous. Who knows though. I might not let Sandra Lee worshipers through the door.
