Squeezing in a Post

I left this post to the last minute before I’m supposed to be in bed; and I forgot the dishes too so I’m doing them in between thoughts.

I got quite a bit accomplished early on in the day, and then it went down hill from there. I blame Master. He gave me my Christmas present early (Prof. Layton and the Diabolical Box). I’ve been playing that and watching TV all night. Bad subbie!

The visit with my family went okay. I still took about 3 hours to decompress. It’s such a stressful time. I never know how it’s going to go. At least I got them to stop yelling at my nephew every time he moved. He’s 5, he’s allowed to be a kid at Aunt luna’s house for crying out loud. I put my foot down and let them know that at my house is my rules and if he runs around like the kid he is, that’s fine with me.

He got to sit next to me during dinner which he loved but his mom (my sister) was nervous about. I don’t have kids but I guess that means I don’t know how to handle them? Hm.

I got some lovely presents. Mom can still pick out clothing that I’d actually wear and they fit too, so that’s wonderful. Sister looks like she’s about ready to pop any day now with my new niece on the way in 3 weeks. My brother is majorly depressed and no one can see it. They just say he’s been acting weird. Well hell, he lost his job 2 weeks ago, is getting divorced and only gets to see his daughter once a month. I’d be depressed too.

So, um yeah. I gotta do better at the evening stuff getting done long before 5 mins before I go to bed. Off to finish the dishes folks.
