Wait! There's Santa!
Merry Christmas - glad you all survived.
It was touch and go at our house. We had everyone over for the big cooked lunch. The Scaries arrived the afternoon before and Scary Sister did not stop talking from the minute she arrived to the minute she left. There was a hiatus while we slept but she managed to use that time to complain about how our neighbours next door didn't shut up! Oh you need a lot of strength to withstand then Dean family en masse. I cracked a litte while trying to serve lunch (how many people need to watch meat being cut????) DM's approach was more interesting. She sent herself into a sugar coma and was down for the afternoon. The dogs were very good and the people's have now all gone so we are free to live in peace and harmony again. Mind you it will take us a couple of days to recover!
As I typed that I noticed Miss Stussy has found a tea towel that was probably on some of the meat and she is eating it. This arvo she scored a piece of roast pumpkin off a plate from the bottom of the fridge. I don't think that one would ever die of hunger.
I got a text message from the friend that has recently gone from my life. I thought maybe it was just a general message to everyone in his phone so I checked with another friend and she never got one. So if it was a message just for me I don't know whether to take it for what it said or read between the lines about what an uncaring bitch I am when his day is going to be so hideous and why don't I do everyone a favour and choke on turkey bone! What I also found out was he has been reading my blog. I never expected that and am not sure how to feel about it but decided I can't control the universe. So if you are reading this then as long as you know why you are checking in on me then that's all that matters. My anger has subsided but I have no regrets about severing ties. I need the energy for myself now and I don't think you and I were ever supposed to be so close forever. It was past time. And if I didn't do it as drastically as I did then it would still be dragging on. You know that as well as I do. The balance had gone.
Right, while I'm off to keep working on my new jigsaw puzzle that Santa brought me....
