The holidays this year have turned out to be completely different from years past. No rushing around stressing to get gifts. Just a simple Christmas spending quality time with the family. We did however decide to adopt a family and thanks to the contributions of many in the family (Nordstrom/Banse/Calender) we bought them a bunch of clothing, pots and pans, toys, etc.
Finally this Christmas i didn't feel alone, which i have felt every Christmas for a very long time... i think i'm finally at peace with myself, my life... i'm excited for the future. i'm OK being single and just dating around. i feel like my relationship with my mom, step dad, and sisters have flourished, and thanks to FB my aunt/uncle and cousins are a lot closer too.
This year these holidays are just another day for me, which i thought had the potential of sucking, but i had the best Christmas! For New Years i had originally planned to go to Flag for the pine cone drop, but due to all the snow and the fact that i start a "grown up job" Monday, i decided to stay back. Now i'm waking up in the morning, going to Fiesta Bowl parade with Alison Holden and planning on going to the block party tomorrow evening!!! Carpe Diem y Viva la Vida! hahaha..
Things are good, finally. Dad's pretty good - health wise, the rest of the family seems happy, i'm happy - single - ready to explore life/world... Yay!
So Happy Holidays to ya! I'm hoping it's been everything you never knew you always wanted : D
