New Years night....

Normally I spend the night home and have a few glasses of bubbly with hubby...

This New Years I went to a girlfriends that I have hung out with for about 8 years. Our husbands get along. Our kids are a few years a part (her daughter is a year younger than mine and her son is two years younger than my son). So it's the perfect family combination.

I walked into her house and she had made taco's. She had the tomatoes all cut up, lettuce shreaded, cheese grated, and sauces out. She even made me soy ground round, awwww. She had everything prepared and ready for when we walked in. We sat down to eat and she hands me a bottle of diet Pepsi...she went all out and remembered all my preferences. I thought the consideration was adorable.

When we were done eating she takes out Strawberry cheesecake and shortbread...and even made daiquires. (she called it a strawberry theme night).

Then after we all cleaned up and sat at her table and chit chatted for abit we played the WII. I loved it. I now regret the PS3 purchase. I had a blast. We played WII Sport (archery, bowling, and sword fighting). I do have to say the WII hurts some bloody bad the next morning. I have never been in so much pain from playing video games. HA HA HA. I hurt in muscles I didn't even know I had.

We were there till 2 am (even the kids stayed awake) then we travelled home and my son insisted on playing on the PS3. We ended up going to bed shortly after 4 am. I was up for 23 hours and was POOPED, but it was a great, quiet, and relaxing night with great people.

Writer's Block

If you had to give up either chocolate or your mobile phone forever, which would you sacrifice?

This is like asking me to chose between my kids, but harder...

All my friends live in my cell phone and my life would be a boring dull existence without the pleasures of chocolate.

Decisions, decisions...

Right now I would chose to sacrifice my cell.

• Reason one, because I have the internet at home now and I am not solely dependent on it for the internet and communications to the outside world.
• Reason two, right now I want to take a sledge hammer to my unsmart not a palm phone. The blackberry has a scroll (like a mouse) well the clicker went almost immediatly and right now I can't scroll up or to the right. Which means I can't get to most of my shortcuts (like address book and volume). It's quite irritating me. It also locks up all the time. I get the hourglass from hell and it will freeze during phone calls or make me wait a 1/2 hour to get to a web page.
• Reason three, I ate lindt chocolates and they were like complete and utter bliss (gift from my boss). I could have closed my eyes and just enjoyed them if I hadn't of been gorging them at work as quickly as possible so I wouldn't be forced to share.

Happy Holiday

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday. I will be home (RELAXING) so I will be flooding Multiply with my usual banter, over abundance of warm fuzzies and bright sunshine. I know a lot of you will be busy (and offline) so I wanted to wish you all a happy holiday before you all vanished to do what normal people do on family occasions.

Writer's Block: Holiday cheer

Do you tend to get nostalgic during the holidays? Depressed? Giddy? How do the winter holidays make you feel?

Holidays bring back memories, some of them are happy but one bad day ruined all the "happy". My dad had his stroke on Boxing Day. He was on his way to visit me and instead of seeing him walk through my door, I received a call that broke me. My dad was all about the holidays, there was not one Christmas he didn't drive all the way to visit me. I miss him most days, but more so over Christmas. It's a lonely time for me. I realize all that I have lost.

Besides my dad, I find it a depressing and stressful time. I always break my bank account and this year I may have shattered it. It is not a holiday I believe in, but I don't have the guts to not conform to everyone's expectations of me during this time of year. I am not a Christian, but because of my kids and extended family I do the whole Christmas thing. I have no religious connections to the holiday.

Low-down of my xmas holiday:

1 week to xmas: OMG PRESSIE SHOPPING
1 day to xmas: OMG *insert number of hours here*
xmas day: OMG PRESSIES YAYZ!!
days after xmas: Sigh, I'm depressed now
new years eve: Reflect
new years day: Relax
day after new year: Sigh, I'm depressed now. Where the heck did my holiday go?

This Time Jack Baurer has gone too far.

Trust

Trust to me is the most important ingredient in a good friendship. If I don't trust someone I can't consider them a friend. My greatest friendships are based on sharing the deepest parts of myself the good and the bad. Knowing what I express will be held sacred. If you don't have trust in your friendship, you don't have a friendship.�
