Well, the holidays have come and gone, and I guess it is time for a recap. Worked Christmas Eve till 8:15, so I missed Christmas at G'ma Sue's house. It was still fun to show up for the after-party. Good time with the family, just goofing off and making fun of each other, as those that love each other can do. I got see my awesome cousins, that I never see, catch up on the family news, and hear stories that I never want to hear mentioned again (Uncle William, that was for you).
Christmas Day I went to church at West View as usual, where we had a candlelight service based on the Advent wreath. It was....awkward. Never mind that they put the entire thing on the projector (just once, I would love to hear a hymn in parts, from the songbook. Also, the reader and the readings are supposed to be the focal point, not the rolling projector....), but it was kind of hard to see the point of a candlelight service with the sun streaming through the two-story stained glass window in the back of the sanctuary.
After church, we went to Grandma Carolyn's, where we ate breakfast....at 1 pm... Then, while everyone was chilling out, I went to the guest bedroom and stretched out on the floor, completely missing the whole present deal. Oh well. I guess I noticed this year the disconnect between the two sides of the family. I'll make that another topic later on.....
We then came home and did Christmas here. I have made a vow that I am moving out by August 1. I love my parents, but I can't stand living here...I'll do another post on that.... Anyway, I guess I'll recap New Year's later on.
