What are you doing for the holidays? - Page 2 - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Two words: SLEEPING LATE.

Seriously, I have to get up each weekday at 4:45 am to go to work, and I'm NOT a "morning person". We have one family get-together, at my sister's, to exchange gifts and eat Christmas dinner. I'm back on a strict diabetic diet again, so that means not much for me-no stuffing or sweets until I can get my glucose under control, which it's not right now, even on medication. Other than that, I have no plans for the holidays other than to rest, and those two weeks go by fast enough, believe me.

I did purchase a new spider for myself, though. I felt I deserved something for putting up with all the mess I have to deal with at school, but she won't get here until next week sometimes. Yeah, I'll post pictures.

I'll probably be overeating and enjoying what ever alone time I can get when the family is all together.

Take it from a professional, sweetie.

Done and done. I'm not doing any more work this evening.

I'm going to geek out and watch G4 all day. I'm angling for that trip to Japan in the giveaway they have going this year. Much better than last Christmas.

Sparky · 12-12-2007, 03:02 PM

Same thing I do for Thanksgiving. And Easter. I have to cook all day and act like I like having certain people over here.

And then clean up after everyone.

Bloonan · 12-12-2007, 03:58 PM

My usual. Look at a tree surrounded with gifts, smile uncontrolably at them, spend soem time enjoying those gifts, then heading to my grandpa's who usually has a full house on this day.

It shall be entertaining, however; my grandpa has gotten cats this year, and they're not used to that many people.

Partymember · 12-12-2007, 04:04 PM

sleeping, working, playing Age of Empires 3 LIKE ITS MY JOB, then on Kwismus i'll unwrap some viking metal CD's (all i asked for

) and probably chillaxing.

My buddy has a court date the day before vacation, so odds are i'll be visiting him a few times over the vacation in county jail. Stupid probation violation (was allegedly seen with undesireable persons) and they're putting him away for at least a month

One Radical Dude · 12-12-2007, 05:42 PM

Just typical stuff that my folks do. Have big dinner, and open some gifts. I may be going to Mexico the day after Christmas to see relatives; not for sure, though.

xxxClaire · 12-13-2007, 06:00 PM

A bunch of relatives are comming over. So I'll be having Christmas dinner with them. Then I'll probably be spending a lot of time with one of my best friends, since I never ever get to see her. Then I might be going skiing somewhere farther north, or maybe even go somewhere down south. But if not, I'll be staying home.

Invader Bloo · 12-20-2007, 07:24 AM

Go to my grandparent's house on Christmas Eve, who live like a mile away. Eat Christmas Dinner & open my relative's presents (Grandparents, my aunt & uncles who live in the city). Go home while my siblings go to bed & watch 'It's A Wonderful Life'. Then go to sleep, wake up & open presents. Then play my 360 all day. I might watch Home Alone, Die Hard, Christmas Vacation, Elf & A Christmas Story.
