Well the holidays are definitely upon us and my house is filling up with people this week.  I already have my live in slave / room mate here as well as my 19 year old nephew full time and my primary partner Brett is here generally on weekends which is a of people for me already.  

But then yesterday I drove to NJ to pick up my 20 year old neice who is going to be staying with me for about two weeks while school is out for Christmas vacation, and today when Brett comes up for the holiday he is bringing my sister and her boyfriend with him because they are staying for a few days, to spend Christmas with me and her kids. (there’s a long grisly story there but I won’t get into that in a public forum) The bottom line is, I am so not used to having so many people underfoot and this is definitely a stressful time for me so I would sooo much rather be beating some sweet masochistic boys right now but I can’t with so many frigging people here!  Grrr!!  

I of course want everything to be perfect (because I have a teensy little control freak streak wich I am sure surprises you right?) and planning meals for 7 people one of who is practically vegetarian and another that has allergies to at least one of my favorite foods is a pain in the ass! Not to mention the long waits for the bathroom… (thank God I have two at least).  And the truth is where I MOST want to be for Christmas morning is with my God child watching her eyes as she opens her treasures. THAT’S my favorite part.  <grin> 

Anyway, I have to get up and get dressed and get the day underway but I don’t know if I will get a chance to stop back before Christmas so I want to just take a moment to wish any readers that I do have out there in spite of my sporadic posting habits a very merry Christmas … and all the best in the 2009! Much love and happiness to you all .. always!  Suze
