Update Quickie
Christmas was good. We had a nice trip to the inlaws and we we got there the chocolate consumption was high. :) I'm rather amazed that I didn't gain more weight frankly because I always eat more there, I swear they put something in the food.
We all exchanged presents and everyone seemed happy with what they got. I know I was. I got sparkly things and lotions, stuff I love. His mom is pretty perceptive because even though I always get girly things she never gives me nail polish which is good seeing as how I don't wear it. I am going to have a stellar collection of gloves though since I still have the ones from last year. Of course at this time of year there is no such thing as too many gloves.
It snowed a few days, stayed sunny for Christmas and started sleeting the next morning. I'm glad we only made a day trip, driving home in that mess would have been horrible.
Hopefully things will settle down soon as Das was caught in the layoff at the beginning of the month and hasn't found a new gig yet. I just hope it doesn't push him into a terrible depression. I hate having to let him know where we are financially because he gets down but it's one of those things that must be dealt with. He's holding up better than he has in the past which is nice. I just keep my fingers crossed that it continues. I would love for a holiday to come without extra stress sometime, sigh. I swear sometimes I want to just throw my hands up and take a nap, a very very long nap but I guess moving along is more my style.
I was sick as a dog for 2 days after we got home. I think it was the bran muffins. Das ate them and felt fine but I had terrible pain and gas and unpleasant bowel issues. That's the second time I had the bran muffin and the first time had the same effect. I don't swear it's them but I have no intention of trying another one in order to see if it was just coincidence.
I added a meditation app to my phone, it seems like with everything getting crazy right now reminders to sit and breathe are a good thing. Hopefully soon there will be better news soon.
