Had a great holiday this year

  • Late Merry Christmas y'all! Early Happy New Year! I had a pretty cool weekend overall. Made out like a bandit this year on Christmas. Bought myself a new camera using some cash that TJ gave me. Also bought myself a new Sesame Street book that was 50% off, and got a new blender/food processor thing. It's like the Magic Bullet, but a cheaper brand. Made myself a low fat eggnog smoothie earlier this evening, it works. Cathy also gave me The Office seasons 1/2, which I've been watching. Actually the best present I received this year was my dad's health. I was so afraid he'd be in the hospital on Christmas. Our family has had that curse for generations. My grandfather and late uncle always seemed to be sick around the holidays as well.
  • The rest of my weekend was fun too, although tiring. Saturday I seemed to be on my feet the whole day. My dad's cat Johnny passed away late Friday night, so I had to take Dad and Michelle to the vet hospital to drop off his body to be cremated. Then Davina and I went to lunch, did some shopping, and hit the gym together. I had enough time after that to go home and make dinner, and wrap Cathy's bday presents. Then I had to take Michelle and Dad out to do more shopping. Then I finally got back home and maybe hung out an hour before I accompanied Cathy on her late night grocery run. So yeah, busy Lisa. Sunday wasn't so bad. I got up and went to church, then to the gym, then spent the afternoon/evening lounging at home. Even managed to take a nap. Feels so good to relax for a change.
