Xmas in July?
Feels like Christmas in July out there! lol Its 60 fuckin degrees, wtf? lol Well I guess I can't complain...global warming can poke its head out this season coz I like the warm! lol ::hangs head:: I'm a very bad environmentalist lol
Anyhoo. Just have to get dad his xmas gift and my boss's friend (whom I love to death!) Glenna a gift and I'm done. I'm still waiting on a few gifts to be shipped to me...so hopefully they'll be here by thursday so I can get to wrapping them all!!
I met Eugene's extended family Saturday. It was fun. His Uncle Paul is my favorite! He's diabetic too...but had me in stitches over how much better I'm doing than he is lol He's a funny man.
We also picked out and cut down Eugene's mommy's xmas tree before the family function. That was pretty cool too :-)
::Sigh:: I love my future in-laws lol This is a *great* sign lol
Eugene's cousin is getting married in March and she personally invited me to it...so now I need a dress...the only wedding I've ever been to I was IN... can't re-use a bridesmaid dress LOL So I need a dress and thankfully I have a bestest friend in the fashion industry to help me find one! Yay! Juliette's gonna help me look purdies.
Well...if the holidays don't drive me mad then the ticking of the 10 billion clocks my boss decided to wind up in my office will....I HATE TICKING. Call me Hook all you want, its fucking MADDENING!!! tick tick tick tick! I already have issues with repetitive noises!!!! I'm gonna take the batteries out of them and see if she notices LOL
I guess I'm getting into xmas as much as a jaded pagan can lol
I'm having fun buy everyone's gifts instead of it being a chore. The music isn't *that* irritating...in fact, I don't mind it so much at all.
Last week would have been pot luck dinner, and it sucks...but I feel more connected to AJ now than I did before the service last month. The lack of stress allows me to hear him better.
I know that its already almost xmas, and that means January is right around the corner... = Florida!!!
And after that its Feb...and the 7th of that month is me and Eugene's anniversary, and we'll probably be apartment hunting like mad about then.
I just feel a lot of positive things are coming, and that 2007 will be a successful year. I think it will be full of positive experiences. And I feel so much lighter already, like weights have been lifted off my shoulders.
It will be a new year with Eugene, and looking back at our relationship, its amazing. We've grown so much and despite all the external hardships we've faced in the last 10 months, our relationship has only gotten stronger. Its such a wonderful, exciting feeling to say that, mean it, and know I'm not lying to myself like I have in past relationships. Goddess I wouldn't change a thing about us!
And as much as I hate snow, I welcome that too! I'll be bitching and complaining as I dig my car out of somewhere but...I just...welcome life right now. I feel so open! Like the windows have been locked and the shutters closed for so long, and now they've just bursted open and all the dust has flown out and all the birds hanging outside it flutter away into the trees, startled but wanting to see whats inside. Like the scene from Cinderella where she opens the window and the sunlight comes in and the birds and mice are helping her make her dress lol It sounds absurd, but its because you can't completely describe that kind of feeling.
Love,
Dee
