Far too busy

Whew, it's Friday, finally!

I'm tired.

I have had an extremely busy last few weeks. This week and last week were finals at school. I had group presentations in my management class and my interpersonal skills class, a big tax 'problem' that required several study group sessions, and a two hour final in my online religion class that I spent hours studying for.

I am happy to announce that I got straight A's in all four classes!

I started working full time at my new job this past Monday. I started in October and they let me work part-time while I attended school this semester. It's funny, because I planned my classes so that I could find a full time job, working days. I had four classes: one morning class 2x a week, an online class, and two long, once-a-week, evening classes. Because I was only working part-time, I kept on working at the gym, two afternoons a week. When I told them that I had gotten a full time day job, fortunately, I was able to switch from working afternoons to working evenings.

This past Monday, I took my final in religion.

On Tuesday, I worked both jobs.

Wednesday, I made cookies and candies: chocolate covered pretzels, peanut brittle, gingerbread snowmen and ginger babies, and chocolate covered peanut butter balls.

Thursday, I worked both jobs.

And tonight, I made biscochitos. I had to go to three grocery stores to find anise seeds. Is everyone making biscochitos this year?

It's not Christmas without lots of goodies! I still want to make another batch of fudge and some brownies, maybe some macaroons...

Do you like to bake for Christmas? What do you like to make?
