I hope everyone had a nice Christmas or a pleasant Friday if you don't celebrate the holiday. Mine was pretty good. On Christmas Eve, we went over to my aunt (my mom's sister) and uncle's house as we usually do. Then on Christmas we stayed home and only my uncle Tom (my dad's brother) came over. Even though only one person was coming over, we had a ( Read more... )

Thanks family for all the help. Now my dad wants me to put the Christmas village away. That's his thing, not mine. I told him no, and now he's ( Read more... )

Christmas was okay. We went over to my Uncle's house and there was no drama. I basically sat on their couch all day and watched basketball and football on their new TV that sits on top of their broken TV. I'm not a big sports fan and don't really enjoy watching them on television, so that pretty much sucked. My eighteen-year-old cousin is ( Read more... )

I've had it with the American Cancer Society. They were supposed to call me back last week to set up an interview. It is now a week later, and I still have not heard from them. I have no idea what is going on. I suppose I could call them and ask, but I do not want to deal with them anymore. I am just going to assume that they found someone ( Read more... )
