Still not in the house.

However, a replacement laptop for the one messed up by housekeeping has been secured and will be set up tomorrow.

I don't have my spring teaching schedule settled yet, currently I have two different classes scheduled for 1st and 3rd blocks.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

But today was a huge success with feeding 32 people for our family dinner and presents. Everyone seemed very happy with what they recieved and my grandmother was very happy to have everyone but one grandchild and his family here.

buttlet: Thank you, Merry Christmas to you as well.

danks

I still owe you a gift.

you gave me one already????

Did I? That was just my over due treating you to dinner last time.

Tomorrow morning will just be immediate family, so myself, mom, bobby, his wife, the niece and my step-father. Well and my grandmother because we're all staying here.

but i thought that WAS the present

For today I received a pair of really nice dress shirts and $50 cash. Tomorrow morning I'll get to open the rest of our presents.

buttlet: No, that was just where I promised to feed you dinner one night.

And the dinner was for all the wonderful little voice memos you sent and the pleasure of getting to text and getting to know each other.

my dumb voice demos where i bitch about work

And threaten physical harm while also talking about being tiny

I'm pretty sure you'd said you're going to hit me a dozen times by now.

i will hit the world

So full of passion and energy.

I didn't get any shots of the food this time since my phone was in my room, but the banquet was on par with Thanksgiving for those who saw that spread.

And the presents were stacked to the ceiling downstairs. It was fairly crowded with all the great-grandbabies getting tons of gifts. Everyone else was limited to receiving two and a card.

Oh I get to spend tonight on the couch again, but get a bed back when my room is free again and my cousin and his wife head back home. Though I think Bobby is heading home tomorrow night as well.

I'm sticking around until Wednesday, if maybe not a little longer depending on my grandmother's appointment goes that day.

So yeah, that's where I'm at right now. And remember if any of you ever need anything ping me, or text me. I'm always willing to offer an ear and talk, or just act as a sounding board if needed. Hope you are all having a wonderful holiday, take care of yourselves.

Merry Christmas!

And now that not a creature is stirring, it seems it's time to set everything out and enjoy these milk and cookies.

fireduck: Merry Christmas Love, I hope you are having a wonderful one.

Yesssssssssssssss

Roommate and I are going to have a quiet little dinner after I get home tomorrow and open family presents
