I guess I survived the Holidays but I felt they were a little flat. I had a lot of prep to do being I was hosting the big Christmas Eve event for the fam and I had crafts to do (still not complete) and of course the shopping that catches up with you quick. One day your like 'oh I got lots of time', then the next it's like 'crap i only got a couple days left and they are all booked now i have no time to finish shopping!'. So with all the stress of pre-preparations I think I forgot to relax and enjoy the actual holiday once it showed up. I usually really enjoy entertaining, but I feel like none of the fam on Christmas Eve really, really had a good time. In fact they were getting pretty bored at one point and all lethargic from food and it got really (quiet). And I think we were all afraid to start any kind of conversation bc it's too easy to piss people off anymore bc everything is taken so seriously and no-one recalls how to just TALK anymore or have fun anymore. Maybe I was trying too hard and overthinking the whole thing. I think it will be at someone else's house next year so we'll see if I enjoy it better when I am not hosting.
I am glad for Jesus's BD Party. It was a good time and it reminds me of how I am really bad a keeping up with folks though. I'm too wrapped up in my own affairs sometimes I think and I get forgetful, and time passes fast. Anyway, it was nice to see everyone an remember how to relax and have fun. Thanks for the good times :)
I got a sewing machine for Christmas. Thanks to my mom it's the most awsome one ever. Anyone interested in doing bitch-n-stitch? I am not even sure who all is into sewing and crafts out there, but let me know if you are. I have a whole list of things I want to make and/or tailor.
It's really hard to get back into work after 5 days in a row off. Oh, well. Time for lunch!
