Christmas was amazing. I love sitting back and watching how excited the kids get when they open their gifts. It is pure joy, they are genuine when they come and hug you and express their thanks for their presents. It makes me really happy. They received some pretty amazing gifts this year, Barbara and Dusty came through like they always do. My parents and my siblings really stepped up this year for the kids. For that I am really thankful. The kids are off to Virginia until Thursday, I am going to take this weekend off and start to get back into the school mode. Christmas is already put away (I did that today) and I have cleaned up my house. I even managed to take an awesome two hour nap today. That felt amazing!!!
I am going to work on another crochet project. I am done making the baby blanket and matching beanie for the new baby coming in my nursing class. I made a cross from my best friend. That was fun to do, one of the first things I have made that wasn't a blanket. That was my first beanie as well. I am going to try and make come little booties for my cousin who will be having baby Elizabeth in May. One of these days I will stop doing projects for others and make my own blanket. But, there is something special making something for others. The old saying "It is better to give, than to receive" is right. I love watching people be happy. It warms my heart.
Marty and I had some us time today, which was nice. We went to academy and looked at guns. One day I will own one and we can go to the range together. I never thought he would want to do something like that but he does. I hope once school is over that is a little hobby that we can do together.
Brittany is in Florida, so my do buddy isn't here for a week. It feels weird to not be talking to her or having her over. I invited her husband over for football on Monday. I know that he has to work and he couldn't go to Florida with her. We will see if he brings his butt over here.
I think that is about it for now. I have other things I need to get off my chest, but I need to find a constructive way to put it into words. I need to be able to say is and it mean something so that I can let it go.
Now, if I can get Marty to pick a damn movie that we can both enjoy I would be a happy camper. He likes the weirdest shit!
