After Effects

I have finished Grandma and Grandpa's christmas gifts! It's two days late, but better late then never right?

Our christmas here was rather interesting, the kids are adorable when opening gifts! There were a TON of boxes wrapped with shinny paper and ribbons that entertained Isabelle to no end! That and a laser pointer from the air-soft-gun that Jamie got. She was so tired afterwords!

Since mom (their grandma) couldn't be there for the first christmas I set up my lovely laptop so that it's built in webcam could record the whole thing. Too damn bad it takes up so much of my memory! We put it on Neil's external till mom can see it.

My best friend and non-blood-related sister gave me an awesome Domo manga book! I"m saving it for a day when I miss her. She also got me this neat snap on top thingy for my soda cans. It's really neat, it's great for when I"m driving in the car as well (tested that out on christmas day).

Neil works hard, I try to work hard, did some crafts, which there are pictures of. Love my latest jewelry frame.

Jobs

Oh Jobs, where have you gone? Why are you nowhere to be found? Are you angry, Jobs? We need you to make money, but you are unavailable to us. Without you life seems rather boring and stale; with you it's fulfilling and less lonely. Where have you gone? Will you at least send us a post card?

Aside from being jobless the drama in this house has yet to end! Children bring PLENTY of drama, but you expect some adult drama... or rather you sometimes wish for it just to get things more interesting. So far all the adult drama is something I'd like to trade in for more classy stuff.

There were three "plays" the children had, only was able to go to one of them. Megan's was cute but shorter then I thought it would be. They are First Graders after all. Then Jamie's I couldn't go to and he got the time wrong anyway. Lauren's was last night and I was unable to go to that one as well.

Good personal news: yesterday I had lost 2.7lbs in two weeks, now I've lost 2.2lbs since yesterday!

Still haven't seen New Moon. Neither Lisa nor myself. This is sad.

Some Christmas Photos


The top one is a few pictures put together (for fun) so that the whole area could be seen in detail. These aren't the only decorations but I didn't want to fill the whole blog up until I get the rest of them decorated.
