Surprise Visit

Yesterday was christas and it was wierd. This year didn't really feel like Christms for me. My guess is that's probably because I'm used to having about a week of vacation with my family before Christmas and this year I had to work all the way up to Christmas Eve.
It was good though, I got to spend the holiday with the Settles and almost every Christmas I can remember has been spent with the Settles family.

The best part was that Joanna, Davey, Justin and Jeremy spent all day in the car driving here form Texas. It was a great surprise. We didn't think they were going to be able to make it because of a death in david's family, but they decided it was important to be with family at that time and so they jumped in the car and came. I only got to see them for a few minutes, but it was so fun to see them and to get to have them here for the holidays.

Christmas Wish

So I have frown to tolerate my job that I used to despise with every fiber of my being. However, things have gotten better and I don't actually mind being here that much. However, this weekend my niece Megan got into town so that everybody who is in college is now here. They are all going shopping today to get some last-minute Christmas gifts and they will probably play all day and have the time of their lives.......

ALL WITHOUT ME!!!!!!!!

I have to work this week leading up to Christmas. I get half of Christmas Eve off and I luckily get to spend all of Christmas day at home with the fam. It just really blows that I have to come and hang out in Medical Records while my family parties is up at home. I am not pleased.

Girls Night

So tonight was fun night with the girls. My sister Liz and my niece Brittany are back from school so we bought some junk food and rented the new Batman movie. Then my sister Christine decided to order Pizza. She called and placed an order with Little Ceasers, but she thought it was actually Papa Johns. We realized the mistake when we went to pick up the pizza, and somehow ended up at Domino's, where we placed the order and just waited until it was done. Then we came home and made homemade candy canes. It was piping hot sugar that burned our hands. Well, not mine... I was busy taking pictures, but it did the other girls. The worst is that they are the most special-ed looking candy canes in the history of Christmas. After we completed our "special" project, it was time to watch Batman. Yet, even that didn't work out cause we all fell asleep. I was late afterall, it had hit 8:00 on a Saturday night. Man..when did we become such a bunch of Grandma's???
