Christmas was a great, I really do hope everyone had a great day and did not go totally insane. It is over and completed for this year, just in time for everyone to start preparing for Christmas next year. Only around 365 days to go.

While opening up gifts Christmas morning I got the major case of the grumpy kitten. I became upset over the fact that Bryan had only given me two gifts, one of which was a life pass to Whistler/Blackcomb mountain to be used at a later date, and the other was a big toblerone. When I had gotten him many smaller items such as DVD’s, lawn sprinkler, Opti-Mash Prime. I believe that all my emotions came from the fact that we never had dinner the night previously with all of our running around we never did stick around anyone’s house long enough to have dinner.

I guess Christmas does not come from a store and is not measured by the amount of gifts one receives. I am very happy with everything I have received. Some of the top items I got were:

• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallow
• Whistler/Blackcomb Mountain fast track lift pass
• Frying Pan
• Various Gift Cards to Chapters, Earls, Ciniplex, Science World and the Vancouver Aquarium.
• Tea set from my boss.
• Cash from Bryan’s dad. He has never given me a present before. I plan to buy some good shoes.
