Holiday Antics
Hello again, Blog World, I’ve just dropped in to see what condition my condition is in, as once sang Kenny Rogers.
Merry christmas and happy new year!
Edels and I have come back to Queensland for the holidays. We’ve been up here since the 16th and are going back home on New Years eve-eve, so basically the 30th. I have to say the weather up here has been unseasonably perfect, warm but not too hot, and not very humid. We really haven’t needed the air conditioning that much, although Edels hibernates in it every chance he gets.
We did christmas eve with my family, which was fun, christmas with Edels' family, which was equally as fun, and boxing day back with my family at my Auntie L’s house, which was very nice but not as much fun as christmas eve or christmas.
christmas eve, we had a barbeque at my Mum’s house; it was Mum, both sisters, little sister’s boyfriend, Edels and I. Everyone got drunk and my little sister got us all to act out rude jokes which made the jokes not as funny, but the acting was hilarious so it made up for it.
Christmas, Edels and I took the train 2.5 hours to the elder of his sister’s house for his family gathering. Our families literally live at the opposite ends of the Brisbane train lines - my Mum, the last stop on the Gold Coast (south) line and his Mum, on the last stop on the Caboolture (north) line. It’s a bit of a pain, but at least we can catch trains.
I have to say Edels' family is really lovely people and great in-laws, with the exception of Edels’ sister-in-law. I have a big problem with her because she is rude, stupid and highly opinionated, which I think is the worst personality combination. I really don’t like her; I’ve tried but I think she is intimidated by me, which makes all her bad qualities come out even more. Anyway, it was great - she is 12 weeks pregnant with twins and obviously felt like shit, so she just sat there looking exhausted and thin without saying a word. It was like she wasn’t even there! Her husband (Edels' brother) was in fine form, so the day went beautifully. Edels and I stayed there at his sister’s house and taught her and her partner card games and Edels got drunker and sillier as time went on.
Apparently, back at my family’s house the festivities were not going so well. My middle sister loves playing pool volleyball whenever there is a gathering so my two sisters and my 70-something plastic surgery victim aunty all got in the pool and were playing when my little sister asked everyone if they minded if she played topless, and there were no objections, but after a while my aunty got jealous and declared her boobs to be just as good as my little sister's and took her top off as well! My little sister was horrified that her 70-something aunty was taking her top off in front of her 29 year-old boyfriend. When I heard the story I laughed and thought it was hilarious, so I thought I’d better relay it to the land of Blog.
Anyway, got to go and do more family stuff.
Thanks heaps, my lovely Hissy Kitty, for looking after our naughty kitties. Miss you heaps. xxoo
