Tomorrow I have to go back to work. Sigh. I want another week of holidays.
Here’s what I did:
– went skating with my kids
– went bowling with my extended family
– celebrated Christmas Eve at Marcel’s sister’s place
– celebrated Christmas Day at my sister’s place
– watched Julie bake and decorate a birthday cake for Auntie ccap
– ate a couple of good meals at my mom’s place
– went to a movie with my siblings
– went to a couple of movies with my kids and assorted nieces and nephews
– watched 5 soccer games
– ate lots of great food at the annual New Year’s Eve brunch at church
– ate lots of great food at the Prairie Bounty open house
– went to see the New Year’s Eve fireworks
– slept late almost every morning
– tore out the remainder of the ugly carpet
– painted the floor
– painted the walls
– played some lame computer games
– played some less-lame board games
– partook of the annual “candy and pop” breakfast on New Year’s Day with my daughters (do you know that Coke at 9:30 in the morning makes me sick to my stomach?)
– took lots of long baths
Here’s what I didn’t do:
– Christmas baking
– much cooking
– read anything more intellectually stimulating than People magazine or Reader’s Digest
– visit the shopping mall – not for Christmas shopping nor for “Boxing Day Blowout” sales
– blog
– clean the house
– have any company over
Happy New Year everyone!
