loot
i just had a wonderful last 24 hours canoodling with my dear family. in return i recieved:
-$$$ from the grandparents, and aunties rose and myra
-smoked fish, jam, chocolates, and dried apples from grampa
-a bottle of baja rosa (yummmm!) and homemade cookies covered in goodness from auntie rose
-a book of 'african-american' folktales from cousin mike (which i am sure to enjoy, as i love books of such a genre)
-a super-awesome wow pair of wool mittens WITH SKULLS AND BONES ON THEM OMG!!!11 from cousin diana and her guy.
i had a super time! myra's new house is really nice (she painted it this dark grayish green colour all over, looks really stylish and unexpected) and i got to meet diana's boyfriend's (also named mike) parents. they were nice folks of ontario origin. mike also brought his daughter, caiden... and by the most bizarre of bizarre coincidences, caiden and her mother, karen, USED TO LIVE IN MY HOUSE. they moved out as we moved in and the reason i knew this was because i had met the little girl and her mum the couple of times i had come to see the house. my old room (now chris's office) was her bedroom! SMALL WORLD yikes.
and so now i am tired and full of xmas food (poke me and i will pop!)... i'mma drink another gigantic glass of water and go to sleep. then tomorrow i shall complete a few of the things on this list:
-dishes
-laundry
-get clothes out of office
-put clothes away in bedroom
-get shelves out of office
-get vanity table out of office
-cut and pin and sew living room curtains
-vacuum entire house
-wash floors
-rock out and be awesome.
wish me luck.
p.s.
it looks as if chris brought the toothpaste to the island with him, and nathaniel took the other toothpaste with him to coquitlam. i wonder if i can brush my teeth with listerine???
