Christmas....the most wonderful and exhausting time of the year. I had a great Christmas...family, friends, good food, good times. But damn, I'm glad its over. I need a vacation from my vacation! Even though I had some time off from work, I feel like all I did was entertain people or visit, running here and there, which is what has probably caused my sinus troubles. Well that, and this ridiculous weather that we have. It doesn't seem like Mother Nature wants to decide which way to go at this point: summer or winter, make up your mind! As I say goodbye to the holidays, I do think I should look back on this year and be grateful. No, I don't have a house yet, or a dog, or a permanent job, and no, I haven't actually been accepted into law school yet, but all those things are coming. I can just tell. I know when I walk into my house, I will know it is mine, not like the house I went into yesterday. I can't tell you how disappointing it is to get your hopes up and walk into the 7th circle of hell on earth. How people can live like that is beyond me; bad wallpaper, nasty carpeting, an odor of some sort (Amber compared it to old people and bad breath), and stuff that accumulates over a lifetime spread out EVERYWHERE. That was NOT my house. My house is coming soon, and so is everything else. I just need to learn to have patience...which most of my friends would tell you is a character trait I tend to lack most of the time. Maybe that will be my New Year's resolution: be more patient with myself and everyone around me. Yeh...haha, good luck to me.
On a final note, to everyone who has lost someone this past year, my prayers are with you. I could not be prouder of my grandmother for being strong in this first Christmas without her husband of more than 60 years. It could not have been easy. We miss you Grandpa. Love you always.
