MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE. I hope you have a wonderful evening full of happiness with your loved ones, and that it spreads through the rest of the year and next year as well.
Me?
WELL. I'm sick. Tonsils, most likely, with a side of a cold. Everyone in my uncle's house is sick -except my aunt- and my sisters and I have sore throat and either stuffy nose or runny. I feel SO drugged.
Tht wouldn't have mattered so much if I could have spent most of today in bed, you know? Another cold pill, a few hours of rest, I would have been almost beyond the zombie point for today in a couple hours.
Instead? My dad's sister, aunt Pisi, had the wonderful thought of telling my dad - who's already here - and me 'why don't you make some lasagna or something like that for dinner?' because apparently, she forgot that some cousins were going to come.
Now, usually, this wouldn't be a problem! I can do a lasagna in half an hour with little to no problem back home!
But a) I'm not at home b) we do not have a mixer here nor a working oven and c) WE'RE ALL SICK AND DYING HERE.
And this is particularly irritating, because, one of the reasons I came for the whole week here? Was because they TOLD us that we wouldn't have to worry about cooking (as if they didn't know I love it) and that 'I would be able to relax'. So far, the last thing I've been able t do? Is relaxing. Especially considering that I spent the last two hours cooking vinegar-and-soy'd potatos, the salad dressing and the lasagnas, for not mentioning that the codfish WE - meaning my sisters, dad and I - were going to eat in New Year's, now we're gonna eat it here. Because there might not be enough food.
'Nina! Come and spend time with the family! There's already plenty of food! Don't worry!'.
I'd laugh, but it hurts my throat.
Anyway, ignore that moment of Bah!Humbug. At least tomorrow I'm not doing anything more stressful than going back to Queretaro, to my cats, my home and my comfortable bed.
LOVE YOU ALL ♥
