I'm only a couple of hours away from finishing the last barefacts of this semester, and 2003. it's absolutely crazy - I am half way through my issues of barefacts for my sabbatical year. I can't quite believe it.

Well, it's been a rollercoaster term. I've had my ups and downs in terms of the job, but overall it's been pretty good, if a little stressful (understatement of the year)! Through all of it I've been amazingly lucky to have Ben supporting me, and I hope I can support him as much as he has been there for me, during his exams over the next few weeks.

It's four weeks until Christmas Day, and we have 3 1/2 weeks left of semester. I'm getting 2 1/2 weeks off work over Christmas (if booking my holiday days goes to plan) and I absolutely can't wait. It's going to be amazing, spending time with Ben and not worrying about getting to work by 10am or getting barefacts done by every Wednesday afternoon. Only 16 working days left - wa hoo!!

I'm listening to Christmas songs on the mac right now, and feeling all festive and happy and in love and wonderful. It's a great feeling. :)
