Well here I was feeling a bit blue about not being home for Christmas. I posted the other day about how I was feeling better about how lucky I am to have good friends and family :)

So last night my aunt said she was having dinner so I went over with my cousin and my other cousin's girlfriend. It was supposed to be a tree decorating party but when we got there the tree was already done so with all the weird things that were said to me over the past few weeks I thought this was a bit odd. My FAMILY surprised me!!

My mum, gran and sister came out here for Christmas. My mum is sixty and in rather poor health and has NEVER been on a plane before!! What a surprise!!! Needless to say I think it will be a really special Christmas. I really am a lucky girl :D

I hope everyone has great holidays!!

    Thanks, Ry. I still can't quite believe it. I had some clues but I never really thought my mum would fly. Last night as we were driving home my cousin "wow, you must feel really special" and I do :D but not in the way that means I have to take a short bus :p

    why was I thinking dick in a box?
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.
