Christmas

So, that was this year's christmas. Gone before you know it. And here in Holland we're lucky to have 2 days of christmas. But if you've worked as much as I have the last days before christmas you don't really realize that christmas is there. But it were fun filled days though. With lots of food, family and laughs.
On the first christmas day we had our christmas brunch with the whole family (wich arn't that much people) and we had lots of food. We got up on the ungodly hour of 7 am and unpacked our presents, then we cleaned up and the aunts and uncles and cousins arrived around 11 am. They left around 14.30 and then we put in a movie (pirates of the caribean: deadsman's chest). My father fell asleep during the movie and the rest of us just sat there and watched. All we had the energy to do at that moment. And later we had a lovely christmas diner with turkey and everything. Then my granddad from Utah called and we got to wish eachother a merry christmas. He sounded lonely though. Wish I could have been there with him or that he was here. But he did tell me that when I'm there he's going to set me up for ski or snowboarding lessons. Personaly I like the snowboard eventhough I've never done it before and am probably going to fall more than I stand. But it will be great, always wanted to do that!

Second christmas day I was going to go sporting with a friend of mine but we desided not to seeing as in the workout started at 10 o'clock and sleeping in was a nicer option. Then my mom, my dad my sisters and Charlie's boyfriend and I went to my grandfathers grave. Then we went to Soest Duinen. It's a big sand field in the middle of the woods nearby. We took the dog who got to run around and be wild and free. As could my little sister. My older sister, Charlie, had already left with her boyfriend for her boyfriends house. They spend the second christmas day with his family. Was glad that Mark was there for christmas though. Gave us all a chance to really get to know him. And I wouldn't mind if Charlie holds on to this guy. Eventhough he looks rough and Goth, he is a really sweet and even shy boy. Or boy, I could better say man seeing as in he is 28 already.
After we got back from Soest Duinen we went home and played a game of Rummy. Then there was another big christmas diner and we all were deadbeat by the end of the day so we turned in early. At least I tried to. My back hurt like hell and made it impossible for me to get a good nights sleep. But I'll survive.

Today was yet another day in the store. It was less busy then I had expected it to be. Especially after Sunday, It was veeeerrrryyy bussy then. It was even more crowded than with the connect-evening. And we only had 6 people working that day. Today we had 11 people and so I could get some work done in the storage room. I wasn't needed in the store. Thankgod for that, I was way to tierd today and my back hurt like hell. That's why my plans for this evening are actually stupid. I'm going to shoot some pool with some friends of mine and drink a couple of glasses of wine so it works as a painkiller for my back, haha.

Speaking of wich, I'm almost to late, again...
