After all said and done ... it turned out to be a pretty good Christmas. There were a few people missing from the festivities and every so often I would catch myself reflecting on the bad things that have happened in 2009 and some things that may be in the near future.
We celebrated Christmas on the 24th at our house and I decided to have everyone over to my house for dinner (which was a first for me) and I think I can honestly say that it turned out good, my turkey wasn't pink, the stuffing was much better then last time and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. My Dad even came, which I honestly thought he was going to cancel saying he didn't feel good. Of course he ate way too much and didn't feel too good after but that is what happens when your body isn't used too having food and you have a meal! He really needs to start eating more but how do you force a grown man to eat? Santa came on the 24th as well, after supper my FIL and hubby took Jacob for a walk to "look for Santa" and while they were gone guess who showed up!? he he The look on his face when he walked in and saw all the gifts was priceless but of course my camera died just before they walked in the door and I didn't get any pics of Jacob opening his presents!! We took video though and hopefully my Uncle will send me a few pics? We were all spoiled - Jacob had so many presents .. I think we really over did it this year, the stores just seemed to have such good deals that I bought way more then I should.
On the 25th we went to visit my Mom and ended up having dinner there, it was nice to spend time with family. The 26th my in laws have an open house that we went too, Jacob was such a good boy throughout the entire holiday, his schedule was way off but it didn't seem to affect him too much. Everyone thought he was cute and he made everyone laugh when he tried flirting with one of my hubbies cousins friends (a very pretty Asian girl), he was chasing her all around the pool table trying to pull her dress off.... it sounds odd but really it was sooo funny!
I'm back at work today.... and it is so slow!! My girlfriend had a baby last night and I'm so anxious to go see the new addition!! I'm hoping that maybe if we aren't very busy that I could sneak out early and go see the baby!!?
So now that the holidays are over I'm determined to loose this weight!! I'm so tired of being FAT! My jeans are so tight that pretty soon I will have to lie on my bed to do them up! I like being comfortable in my pants and right now - I am not!! I might join a gym, I'm still debating it though... I hate to spend money on something like that knowing that I have a treadmill in my basement but with a gym they have daycare services so I can take Jacob after supper, he can play and I get an hour or so work out. But at home I have to wait till he is in bed (which sometimes isn't until 9pm and then go on the treadmill!? By then I really don't' feel like it, that is my time to relax and catch up on a few shows. I also have the Wii at home but it's so hard to play when Jacob is up, he wants us to play with him so I would have to wait till he is in bed. I'm so determined to do it this time!! I have to get the weight off and I have to be patient, you can put 5lbs on in one night but it takes 2 weeks to get it off! That is what I hate, I end up getting frustrated and throw in the towel before I give it a chance. So for 2010 I will have the same resolution as millions of others out there ... to get healthy and be fit! By Jacobs 2nd birthday I want to be in the 100s again!!
