I'm too much of a cheese ball to miss posting on christmas, ask anyone they'll tell you :)
so MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!
it was a different christmas
last night i went to marges and sat in the dark living room with her and my dad and tried to keep the conversation going and then opened a few presents. it was fine. just different. not at dads house, not really christmas just kinda quick present giving. then i went and saw mindy and kam which was nice. then to daves with the crew for a bit. then mom and i were home. i opened my yearly pjs which are wayyy cozy and a pretty gold locket from my mommy. that was my meaningful present and i loovee it. i fell asleep on the couch by the christmas lights and fireplace then slowly moved upstairs. woke up this morning opened a few presents and had waffles with mom and then drove to denver for christmas dinner (@ 2pm (lunch??)) with grandma, laurie, marty and jill. we have one heck of a quirky family but i love them and i have reached the point where they make me laugh.
the big difference, no jess. it was weird, the first one ever. but, i see him all the time at school and we'll make up for it, still doesnt make me wish he was here any less but its ok
it was a good day though, mom and i made our small little christmas just fine and it was good to see the family.
oh..plus an hour long phone call with scotty to hear about the journey to hell and back and whats coming and all sorts of thoughts and ideas and excitement. probably the best part of my day :) he'll be here monday. yayyy
then i came home and planned and organized, i mean what else would i do with my free time
organized food and equiptment for the yurt
WE'RE GOING TOMORROWW!!!!
to be completely honest i havent been as excited as usual, its just been a lot of planning and from california with school too a little stressful. but its coming together and we will go and we will have a blast. chels and ese and i will complain the whole way up and almost die but we'll also laugh and walk backwards and jam and have a blast...and hours and hours later we will make it to the top for the best nap ever. playing in the snow, cooking, playing silly games, and a little bit of crazy fun with my best friends, its fantastic and something that I loooovee has become a tradition. it will be an experience as always, but a wonderful one, two days away from life just having fun and being us, fun :)
ok and even better, SCOTTY WILL BE HERE MONDAY and i have spent the rest of my night planning a get together....almost all of us are gonna be together soon and it is gonna be wonderful and we are gonna scream our heads off when we see each other and laugh and tell stories and be in our little ryla world for a couple days. BEAUTIFUL!! Seriously i get goose bumps thinking about it. I cant wait
so...even if christmas was different the after events are absolutely wonderful. and i really am happy that i have this wonderful life :)
merry christmas, get in your cozy pajamas and stay warm! its negative something outside. and drink some spice tea or hot cocoa or apple cider or something cozy and then think about all the wonderful things you have and christmas presents that are nothing more than the people that fill your world day after day, cause i think thats about the best present you could ask for :) at least for me it is, maybe i just got super lucky, either way im thankful and happy and sooo fortunate. <3
