The problem with me is...

The problem with me is that I am a procrastinator.
What's that you say? You don't believe me??
Well, here's my proof.
-I did not apply to college until April of my senior year. And I ended up only applying to one school (SVU, obviously) so...good thing they wanted me! And good thing for Student Ambassadors who called me to see if I was applying or not, haha. Otherwise I may have never gone.
-I am always, always late. This has nothing to do with how early or late I get up (unless, of-course, you count my procrastination of getting out of bed) because I can start getting ready 2 hours before I have to leave or 20 minutes, it doesn't matter, I will nearly always be late.
-I put off doing things because they seem overwhelming (um, blogging?) and the longer I wait, the more overwhelming they become, and the longer still I wait. *sigh* I never just man up (woman up) and do them, until it is something that takes me all day, and I devote an entire day to doing whatever it is, and thereby procrastinate -other- things that need to be done that are more overwhelming than the aforementioned task. (scrapbooking, blogging, journaling, bill paying, unpacking, etc.)
-I will almost always, always, always rather watch television or goof around on Facebook than do anything productive. It doesn't matter that I have looked at so-and-so's pictures a half a dozen times before already, it will always be more attractive to me than folding laundry or doing dishes.
-I can probably count more papers that I turned in late than ones I turned in on time in college. Good thing I had professors who were cool. If I'm ever a professor, I think I will make it a blanket rule that there's a 36 hour grace period. The later they turn it in, the longer I have to grade it...right?  But I won't tell my students that. So...if you are reading this in the future and you're my future student, just assume that I've changed my mind and you need to not be like me and turn in your papers on time. *cough*

Shall I go on? Or is that enough proof for you? I'm going to assume that it's enough, and move on.
So. On to the original intent of this post.
You know what day it is. January 1st. And you know what that means.
New Beginnings, Resolutions, Goals, Tasks I want to complete in the next 365 days.

However, since I am incapable of moving on without feeling some sense of closure of the year before, I feel that I must recap all of the (mostly boring) events of the past year that I have not blogged about. It is amazing how much breaking my ankle put me behind...which is funny because you would think that all of that time there sitting on the couch with my ankle propped up would be perfect for blogging, but it wasn't. It was perfect time for watching television. And Facebook.

So, I do believe that I was caught up through the break of the ankle, yes? Let's go on, but quickly, because....I don't have all day to do this today. I have stuff to do!

September 2011

I got a hair-cut

October 2011

We moved into a new house -

November 2011

 I saw a deer in the backyard.

 I made a pie.

I built a box for the kitty litter boxes (this is unfinished, obviously, but it now has a fourth wall and a lid on hinges. And it's painted blue.

 I hosted Thanksgiving.

 We went to the zoo.

 We took our annual picture by the Christmas tree.

December 2011

First frost

The Tardis broke down... sad. She just needed to regenerate. Aka, she needed a new starter.

These are some a.m.a.z.i.n.g. lights we saw - I swear there were at least 5 acres of lights, these pictures don't do them justice in any way.

 Christmas Day

 And then down in North Carolina...

If Beau looks like death, that's because he felt like death. Sicky McSickerson.

Isabella wearing a dress Dad picked up for her in Korea.

Making cupcakes - let's just say that we were more than grateful that Isabella didn't like them so that we didn't have to eat them! Cupcake mix that just requires water isn't as amazing as you would think it would be (and I didn't think there were going to be amazing).

And THAT, my friends, family, and random strangers who stumble upon my blog, is the rest of 2011. Let's hope that I can keep this more updated for you/myself so that I don't have to spend hours fighting with blogger to upload pictures every time I post.
