brushing my hair sometimes takes days of thought to accomplish. i just sat in the bath and attacked, methodically the crazy build up of snarls. the whole time thinking about christmas, and my birthday, birthays in general. a strange thing about jesus' "birthday" is that everyone but him gets presents.
this is the first year i have not had a white christmas, surrounded by tons of snow, too many decorations and my naughty family. this is also the first year i managed to have gifts for my entire family, and julia & danielle, which i even sent, wrapped in the mail, ON TIME. If that is not a miracle, i dont know what is.
The need for a new home and the necessity of finding one made me stay put, with 10 days vacation. So instead of being a paid momma, I will be paid to roam this city, packing, eating and if all goes as planned sleeping as much as possible. Paid vacation is the best thing ever invented.
