So tomorrow I am off, then I work on Thursday, then I have a usual three day weekend, then I work on Monday, and then I am FREAKEN OFF FROM WORK UNTIL………… January 5th !!!
There are only 16 hours or just two work days standing in my way of total bliss. Sleeping in, baking, family, and that wonderful spirit and total inner peace that only this time of year can bring. Jenn is taking time off from work too. All my family is healthy and happy and I could not feel anymore blessed, or happy. Jenn and I are in a good place.
Jenn and I are going to have a fuller house this year then last year, her parents will be joining us on Christmas eve along with all of my family. We can’t wait. To us Christmas eve, is the best part of Christmas. I even think all the shopping and decorating this year really put us in the spirit of the season, that is a rare thing for us. We usually feel rushed and dread the shopping, and the wrapping and having to “deal” with the families. This year it is very different, we are calmer about everything. There is only so much you can control, and I think me especially has realized that, and so it is easier all the way around. Kind of a full circle kind of thing.
We are also looking forward to all the goodies, this year we have so much on the menu, and we are crossing our fingers and trying new flavors. More about that later.
We ended up going to the Goerge Eastman house on Saturday, the Dryden Theater, and to some shops and dinner on Park Ave, we also met up with some friends for dinner that live around that area. On Sunday we shut everything off, TV, and phones and just spent time together. The only thing that we could hear in the backround was music playing on our new surround sound system. It was a good day.
Peace and love to all who enter here…
