Christmas Time!

This year's Christmas was fun. It's fun every year because I get to spend it with Vince and his family. This year, I opened at work on Christmas Eve and then drove over to Anaheim for Christmas dinner. The food was delicious!!! Especially the green beans! After dinner we opened presents and I got a bunch of cool stuff. I used to not care about getting presents but in recent years I've learned to become selfish and I love getting presents! D: does that make me a bad person? I dunno. Vince got me the super awesome monitor I wanted for my brand new computer I bought for myself!!! It's sooo beautiful. The whole computer is beautiful and now I can play all the games I want! It's the most expensive gift I've ever gotten for myself and I am quite pleased... with myself. As I type this I am in the process of downloading Skyrim. I should never have opened steam. I CAN'T STOP  MYSELF!!

Anyway.. where was I? Uhhh oh yes, so Christmas eve was quiet. We played games and watched A Christmas Story which always makes me kind of sad. We went to sleep at the usual time and woke up the next day to make breakfast! It's tradition for Vince to make Christmas breakfast and this year I helped! We made the usual: french toast with scrambled eggs and sweet potato hash browns. It was delicious! After breakfast, which was served at 11:30am, we promptly went back to bed for a post breakfast nappy nap. At 2:30 my alarm went off so I left and came home to get ready for work. Work was dull and not super crazy like I thought it was going to be. We were overstaffed which was awesome and we only had one minor hiccup the whole night! Woooo

Alice went to visit her family and got back super late this morning so we didn't open her presents until she got off work. She was very excited to get her books and video game and Frozen soundtrack. Overall, this Christmas was pretty good.

On a personal level, I am happy that I am feeling better mentally. I've been having a really horrible time with my health and it was making me break down like crazy hard. I had to skip work twice and I knew that once it started affecting my work, school and personal life it was time to pause and work out this problem. As of a few days ago, I have been feeling a little better each day. I am not at my normal levels of happy-go-lucky, but over time I know that I will feel better. I am eager to start this new year because I am hopeful that it can only get better. I just have to remember to stay positive no matter what, and that I am in control of my future. I also have to remember that no matter what, I am not alone.

On a final note, I would like to say that I HAVE THE BEST BOYFRIEND EVER!!!
