For Christmas, I spent the day with my mom and her boyfriend Doug. They are amazing people... I love Doug with all of my heart, and I love that he makes my mom happy. I'm glad that they found each other. :D We had a huge dinner, steak and lobster tail (ooooooh my god... SO good...)
Baked potatoes and asparagus, and then for dessert, we had this delicious strawberry shortcake from the Pennsylvania Bakery which was to DIE for.
At around nine AM, mom came into my room yelling and flashing the lights to wake me up... Quite the rude awakening... But it was totally worth the noise. Mom was so excited for me to open my presents... I think she's adorable like that. So I get my presents open, and I love every single one. Typically mom gets me really amazing gifts, and this year she did not disappoint. After all that, she made me french toast (which was kinda under cooked... still a little raw egg in there) but it was really, really good.
Overall, this Christmas was probably my favorite. Not for the gifts or the food... But because I got to hang out with my mom and actually see her smile and laugh instead of looking depressed or crying. I got to meet a bunch of Doug's family, and he comes from a really good household. His mother is amazing, and so is his sister. Doreen (his sister) is hilarious! We're both Capricorns, which we talked about quite extensively. His mother is a very sweet woman. His brother, though, was an okay person. Few things bothered me about him aside from the fact that he was a little bit overbearing and a little racist... Things I could look over, but could not live with.
For Christmas this year, I got:
+a Singer sewing machine
+a Dremel tool
+a soldering iron
+dremel tool bits
+lottery tickets (which I won 4 dollars!!)
+Lots of beads and beading supplies
+gift certificates
+a cocoa mug and cookies
+ribbon candy
I'm sure I'm missing one or two things. Ill fix it later if so. I'm really happy for this coming new year, as well.
Lots of good things are on the horizon, i think.
Happy Holidays, and may everyone be happy and healthy, and safe as they enjoy themselves!!!
