Merry Christmas!

December 24th, 2006

Cathy, Kevin’s mom, is here for the holiday. She’s leaving before New Year’s, though. We decorated our artificial tree last night– Kevin finally gave in on the real tree issue because Raymond is allergic to tree sap. It looks very nice. I made cookie dough which I’ll probably bake half of today and half later in the year; I think Raymond likes those cookies.

I have been playing Disgaea and Kevin has been playing his early Christmas present a Nintendo DS. He also informed me that he was giving me a Wii for Christmas, just as soon as they were in stock somewhere.

Kevin’s insurance has changed and apparently they’ll cover Stratterra now. So I need to decide if I want to go back on it again. Long term, I would like to. But if I get pregnant, I’ll have to stop again, and, well, theoretically it could happen at any time. And yes, pregnancy is something I kind of have issues about, but Kevin and I want the end result so I guess I’ve got to suck it up and cope. Well, I hope I have to suck it up and cope. I’ve read enough infertility stories to not want to go there. Anyhow.

I have lots of excellent presents for Kevin and I’m reasonably happy with my presents for other people. Perhaps more on that later!

Christmas always raises my anxiety level significantly, so hugs and kisses, everybody. Be well and be happy and, if you feel so inclined, reassure me that you care.

    Chrysoula- Merry Christmas and I wish you well now and for the New Year amd also to Kevin. Are you looking foward to Annabelle’s wedding and reception. I will not be going. When she originally said she would have it in Dec I told her that was good as I couldn’t attend after Jan 1 2007 to after April 15, 2007 due to I do taxes for H&R Block (I earn xtra money to carry me through the New Year.) So I’ll be sorry to miss it but will be thinking of everyone. Carol will be at the reception. Oh did you get my Christmas present? Take care and best wishes and good things for you for the New Year.

    Had a great Christmas at your house! Lots of good food, good company, and lots of fun! Happy to get back to the warmth and dryness of So.Cal., but it was fun seeing the snow fall the day after Christmas. Thanks again for a wonderful holiday.
