So Christmas came and went, eh? It was a very good Christmas. I hope yours was the same. Today is Boxing Day in Canada, and there is no way in my right mind that I will ever go near a shopping mall today. All the sales are here, and all the crazy people are out looking for bargains, pushing and shoving and waiting. No, sirreebob, not for me! Besides, I couldn’t go shopping even if I wanted to — I’m so flat broke, it ain’t even funny. This year, Christmas left me completely empty-pocketed, though still totally worth it. I’m almost desperate to get paid next Monday — NEXT MONDAY! It seems so far away.

I’m missing my brother and sister something fierce this holiday season, which is a little unusual since we hardly spend the holidays together. However, I really miss them and I can’t wait to see them next weekend. We’re going to NC for 3 days to visit the parents and the extended relatives, so that should be fun. At least the food is going to be outstanding (my mom and my aunt both are amazing cooks and I can’t wait to eat their food!).
