Christmas Day

Christmas day was kinda laid back. I was very thrilled when my dear husband called and we all got to speak to him, that was a great present to me. Christina, Jeremiah and the kids came over for turkey around 3pm. Stayed a few hours then went home because my sister was tired. I was majorly sad/lonely and bored by 7:30/8pm. I asked dad to go to the movies with me...he said no, he didn't want to. I asked the boys....they said they didn't want to go. I was going to go by myself to a late movie, around 9:45pm...but then got scared to got out at night by myself. Not fearful of going, but fearful of getting robbed or killed in the mall parking lot after the movie let out near 11 at night. So, I groveled in my own loneliness on myspace, lol, while dad watched boring TV programs in the living room.

I was kind resentful of him not wanting to go with me, and then the kids not wanting to go either. I felt like I needed to do something, I felt like the walls were closing in on me, the holidays and my husband being gone were/are getting to me. And of course, when you need people to be there for you the most...they usually aren't. I was gonna see a movie I wanted to see sometime soon with someone, but they made plans with someone else...anyone want to see Sweeney Todd with me? I sure can't take the kids to that one.

Anyhow, only 5 months and 10 days to go til my hear husband comes home. I am considering looking into a job, but I don't want to work for a under 11-12 dollars an hour...or I can start ebaying again. I need to do something to help out...especially if we are gonna put the boys in private school, we will see. I am also going to look into doing phone work from home. Any how, that is enough of my rambling for today, thanks for reading this far, ;-).

Christmas presents....

Well, the kids just finished opening all their presents and now they are playing with them. Christian got a Nintendo DS with 2 Games (pokemon pearl and transformers), a shirt, a bionicle, a board game called so you think you're smarter than a 5th grader. A jack sparrow toy from his grandparents. A pencil holder from London from daddy. (Christians game was expensive, so it looks like he got less...but he got what he wanted :-) --)

Elijah got a Squawkers Macaw, A Disney Storybook, Ben 10 ship and 2 ben 10 aliens. A bionicle. A Ben 10 and Shrek Video game.
A pencil holder from London from daddy. And a pirates of the caribbean toy from grandparents.

As a shared gift they got a Playstation 2,
with wireless controller,
a spiderman and hobbit game for it as well.


And lots of little stuff in their stockings, I am probably forgetting to mention stuff.

They loved all their presents...heck I am jealous of his squawkers macaw...I want to cuddle it and talk to it....I want me a blue and gold macaw :-( But I have to wait til hubby comes home and we would have to get a big enough bird cage for a large macaw. I am telling ya though...Elijah's toy bird is so cute!

Merry Christmas Everyone!
