I'm so looking forward to the 4 days off coming up. 4 days away from the insane place where I work. 4 days to spend with the people I love and I care about so much.
December has been tough so far, but it's turning already.
I also need to re-learn how to rest physically, as in sit down and do nothing for few hours. I don't -can't even- do that any more. I'm always on the go. So this weekend I'm gonna try and rest.
I still have a couple of things to buy before Christmas. I was hoping to do it last night but it didn't happen. Maybe tonight.
Christmas eve we're all going to My sister's. It should be a fun evening of good food, few drinks and great company all around.
The other day jasmine asked Me about Christmas back home. I told her "Baba Noel" brought us candies and put them under the pillows. Sometimes I yearn for that simplicity. That was it: Candies under the pillow, no toys, no presents and we were as happy if not happier that today's kids with a floor covered with gifts. I must be getting old!!!! Naaaahhh that can't be!
Time to go on the first round of waking up the troops. It dows take more than one round. lol
