It was such a pretty tree…
I jumped the gun last weekend and went ahead and put up my Christmas tree. My reasoning behind my early decorating centered around the fact that I had planned on going home for two weeks in December. I wanted to be able to enjoy my tree for a long time before I left.
Needless to say, after yesterdays events, my Christmas plans have drastically changed. My Christmas tree is now doomed for a very short display this year. One of my first thoughts after hearing the news was how upset I was that I had just decorated my tree. How dare they interrupt my Christmas festivities! I’m a little embarrassed that my tree even crossed my mind at that point…
This weekend I plan to take down my lovely tree and to start the packing process… yet again. I have made plans to go home for an unexpected Thanksgiving and will be sticking around for a few extra days to hopefully line up some interviews.
After a few days, I will fly back to Michigan to finish packing up my things. I guess I will be home for the holidays this year… which now means something totally different.

I’m sorry, Michelle! I hope things get better. At least you’ll be surrounded by loved ones during the holidays.

I love your tree!!!! But it will look even better in Georgia!!! Boo on Michigan… well actually not boo. Michigan is where you were able to start over.. to find yourself. Yeah for Georgia. Coming back to Georgia will allow you to further find out more about yourself and be surrounded by family and friends (even the ones down south) Love you@@@
