Happy Christmas n' what not.

Christmas is here and will pass in a few hours and then a new year will begin just days later. This is truly my favorite time of year. Once autumn begins and Halloween rolls around, I'm as happy as can be. I sort of hated Christmas as a kid though. I was an idiot child and I didn't appreciate the fact that I still had living relatives who were willing to put up with me. I'm sure they loved me in some weird and distant way, and I loved them just the same. Sometimes I wonder if they think I'm a jerk. I'm just a distant person and I like my solitude. I don't think there is anything wrong with that. Alright, this post is taking a turn I didn't intend. I just wanted to post up some photos of the past weeks. Like our awesome and majestic Christmas tree! Our lovely Christmas cookies and other stuff. So here are a few photos from the 2010 Holiday season.

It's been a lovely holiday and everyone seems to be in high spirits. In other news, I managed to get a job in the mall and I didn't really like it at first. My co-workers have been so wonderful and inviting and I am glad to have met them. The Christmas party for the other company I work for went really well. The first time I had attended, it wasn't so fun and I felt awkwardly shy. I missed last years bash and so it was necessary I attend this one. Especially since we had a lot of new hires and I mean A LOT! Most however did not attend so the party was a little more intimate. I won the karaoke contest and we played Dance Party on kinect. Alright, I suppose that is all for now. 

I leave you now with two of the best Christmas songs ever. EVER.

Late gators! Hope everyone had a lovely holiday season. <3

Aww, I love when Cloud sleeps in my chair.

It's his favorite napping spot. <3 kitties.

Well alright.

Thanksgiving has passed and now comes Christmas. Got to say, I'm pretty darn excited. Though, I am broke and probably won't be able to buy many gifts. I am sure it will all turn out well. We're expecting to have a massive tree this year and Mas's mom is going to have it "snowed". It's supposed to be delivered tomorrow afternoon, so I'll be taking pictures a plenty. Once I get home from work, I may have to decorate it myself. Although, I've got a feeling that it may get done before hand. Everyone seems pretty excited about Christmas.

Our Thanksgiving went well. I baked 16 pumpkin pies the night before and woke up bright and early to start the turkey. We wanted to have a Thanksgiving lunch rather than dinner. Mas stayed in the kitchen and kept me company which made it all the more better. I dread cooking alone in the kitchen. It just gets so boring. Company makes it go by much faster and it's just more pleasant. We watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and we made our own commentary. It was lovely. We didn't have much of a spread on the table because our table chairs are all broken. We only have 3 left so it was decided everyone would gather round the table, talk about what they are thankful for, and then go about their day and eat wherever they wanted. I won't go into too much detail, but after everyone had eaten a bit, there was a bit of a scuffle that went on for some time. It was pretty insane, but everyone seems fine now. I just hope it's all done with and Christmas goes well. Anyway, here are a few snapshots of our day, before the craziness.

Alright then, I'll be off now. I'll see if I can get around to posting something a bit more interesting. I must say, I  envy them cool blogs with cool stuff and cool people. Ah well. Later gators.

Shamed.

I have not made good on ANY of my promises it seems. Well, I don't actually remember making promises, but I said I would try harder to do stuff. I have simply not tried at all. Ah well, It's the end of the year and frankly, I just don't care anymore. All I can think about now is how I'm going to get by the next couple of months. I've been sort of laid off from work and I managed to get myself a holiday job, unfortunately, said holiday job is not going to be able to provide decent hours. So, either way, I'm in a bit of a financial pickle. It's not that big a deal really. My guy is more than capable of handling our finances alone, but it just doesn't seem fair to me and I love being able to contribute. Especially during the holidays. Which brings me to another subject of great stress. I have no idea what to buy for the people I love this year. Mas keeps saying he doesn't want anything, but I love buying him gifts. So for the past 4 or 5 hours all I've done is browsed around Amazon, Ebay, and Etsy. Got a few ideas and I think it's gonna turn out well. I'm just super excited. This is the time of year I love most. Sweaters and coats. Baking and snuggling. It's awesome!

This is the part where I make a few vows and then 3 months later I come back and say how I didn't work on either. That's just how I work. Vow 1! Sew more. Vow 2! Band name. I can't think of anymore. Oh wait, I got it. Vow 3! Take more pictures and videos. I've got to remember to use my camera more often. I must! Alright, that's it for now. I'll be back. Eventually.

Halloween, hooray!

Woke up super early today. Well, earlier than usual. Yesterday, Sam and I went shopping around to find some stuff to finish out my costume for today. We don't have plans to go anywhere,only handing out candy tonight. Just as we do every year. 

About 5 or 6 years ago, I found a sweet yellow vinyl coat and thought it would be perfect for a Jubilee costume. So, I bought it and every Halloween I plan on actually using it but never follow through. Finally, after years packed in a box, I am going to use it! I doubt most of the children will know who I am. X Men was an awesome cartoon back in my day. Watched it religiously. I really don't think kids today are familiar with it though, but its alright. 

I'm wondering, and not sure how I feel about this. A co-worker had a Halloween party. I was not invited. I'm not sure if I should be hurt by this. I don't really know how well liked I am at work. Everyone had talked about it and it seems that all were invited, except for myself. I would not have gone. So I guess I shouldn't be hurt. I'm not hurt, just a little confused. I think I want to be hurt. Come to think of it, I'm never invited anywhere by my co-workers. Well, that's a lie, sometimes they do invite me out for drinks. I have yet to take them up on their offers. Maybe I should make an effort to get out more. I've just always been a solitary person. I suppose that is why Sam and I are so good for each other. We like to hide away from the world. When we do go out, it's together. It's always fun and when we lay in bed at night and talk about it. This makes me content. When I was a child, all I wanted in the world was someone who would understand me. Having lots of friends is not a big deal to me, having someone like Sam is. So there, I've figured it out. I now know exactly how to feel about not being invited to a Halloween party. Perfectly fine.

So, here are a few pictures from the past few weeks. Oh, that's another thing! I am trying to take more pictures and videos. I want to be able to look back and have a visual to my memories. Anyway, back to the recent pictures. Since the colder weather is upon us, I am going to be baking a whole lot. So I started with some blueberry scones and then the other day I made some chocolate chip cookies. Yum! When I was digging out stuff for Halloween, we decided maybe we could stuff the Chewbacca costume and sit him on the porch, or not. 

See, what had happened was......

Alright. Yes, I'm a terrible blog mommy. It's just that my life is so dang boring. Seriously. All I do is work or complain about not working when I'm not working. It's so very sad, but that's just the reality I live. So, instead of sitting here trying to think of things to post up. I am going to work on music and then, if I'm up to it, I shall sit myself in front of the sewing machine and I'm gonna sew. Yeah, I'm gonna sing and sew. Because that is what life should be about. Well, that's what I'd like my life to be about annnnnd I'M OFF!!! Later alligators!

btw, the image I used is my cat Cloud. He doesn't give a deuce if you tell him to get off of the table. He does what he wants. I love him.

Alright, so I have yet again neglected a blog. My apologies, although I am sure I have absolutley no readers. Anyway, so very much has happened since my last entry. As pictured, we ventured to Lost Lake and "Baby Falls" for my 28th birthday and again on another day. Both trips were so fun and relaxing that I really wish we could make more time for more of them. Work has been crazy and it feels non-stop. We have yet to work on music and just last night realized that we enjoy eating more than anything. I mean, when we are eating at our favorite places, its a euphoric experience. Its kind of sad, but that's just how things are right now. I've got to finish getting ready for work. I hope I can continue this later.
