Happy Solstice!
Poor sun! It's always nice getting the light back lol
Today was my last day of work until next year..mom asked if I was excited to have a week and a couple days off and I was like "uhhh..I dunno" and she said "you really love your job, don't you?" Yep! Last year Christmas break was miserable, I'm glad I got that fixed lol. We were listening to Christmas music at work, and when "All I Want For Christmas is You" came on, I thought "I wonder why people hate this song so much, there are worse ones, like the one with the kid with the annoying high pitched voice [I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus]," and that was LITERALLY the next song that came on haha..so weird :P
