My winter break was wonderful.
12.22.12 Busy day but saw MS and MR that day.
Dinner was great...walked around and headed back to the hotel. I somehow passed out around 9 pm and she was watching the Sound of Music and Passed Out.
Christmas Eve - started the day at CA Adventure where we met up with TW and then headed off to Disneyland. It has been so much fun to go to both parks with these girls since they were pre teens. It is nice to see that they have their own friendship and keep in touch even though they only see each other during school breaks. I think their friendship is a positive commercial for FB and texting. (Oh how did I forget we ended up getting NE a pass we need to go back and party at Cars Land. I have realized the next 5 months I am going to be emotional as I watch her finish this phase of her life and move on to college!!!)
Christmas Day - Woke up in Palm Desert with the family. The night before when we got there I felt like I was home. I spent the night in SE's room which was my bedroom almost a year ago during my recovery time. My sister in law E made me a yummy Christmas dinner but we did go see SkyFall first. I didn't like how M died - just not right.
Day after Christmas - drove back to SD; picked up a friend at the airport and chilled. Reflected that my mom passed away 19 years ago this day. Time has flown by and I still miss her and think of her more lately not sure why.
12.27 and 12.28 went to the office but it was slow got quite a bit done but not as much as I would like to have accomplished.
12.29 - went to SD temple to see MH & MO be sealed it was so great. Then headed up to PD again for a family birthday dinner and see my niece LE and nephew SE who returned from their Birth Right trip to Israel. It had been the longest I have ever gone without seeing LE so I was happy to see her. We had dinner at a family friends restaurant and it was yummy. Saw some long time family friends there too. Unfortunately I started to get sick after dinner. Good thing NE was driving my car that night. My family quickly setup my bed and I was down for the night. = (
12.30 - hung out in PD and drove back that night. I learned how to use my sewing machine thanks EE!!
NYE - woke up with a head cold but managed to make it o OC for a party. I was almost going to stay home but I kept thinking there have been two times when I did not want to go out on that night and both those times I went out and had a good time; so I couldn't let a little head cold get the best of me). Had a good time seeing friends I had not seen in a while and seeing how some of my SD peeps know my OC peeps. small world I tell you.
NYD - slept in then went to see Jack Reach dang I already forgot the name of the movie. and had a comical moment when I realized the adult couple next to me had a flask and were making out at times like teenagers. I busted out laughing and MR asked me if I was ok. Went back to her place and started working on a puzzle. AW and SS came over to join us. As I left to go home I was happy to have had an opporutnity to spend a couple of hours with such amazing women. I love these ladies they are diamonds!!!
I think my subconcious was rebelling as I laid down at 10:30 but did not fall asleep until sometime after 1:35 am. I made it to work but I was not early as planned. Maybe tomorrow.
All in all my winter break was wonderful!! I spent it with my family that I love and friends that I cherish (and yes, I love them too).
