exhausted

So Christmas kind of snuck up on me this year. We had an evening of fun with Dav's family on Christmas eve. I had a blast with the kids, and the stockings (aka, great big garbage can of love), was brought back by popular demand.
Christmas day had us at my parents' house in the morning. We had a lot of fun. I helped my mom cook dinner for the crowd that evening (my extended family usually totals around fifty people squeezed in my parents' house, and yes, they all like to talk as much as I do.) It was a great time. It just didn't feel like Christmas this year.
And today it just feels like I am worn out and didn't get an extra day to rest. Christmas eve and day fell on my regular "weekend" off, and as such I had to come to work the day after (today) without a day to recover. They decided to give me an arbitrary Tuesday off to make up for it. Ah, AT&T.
Anyway, I am looking forward to Tuesday. I plan to redefine the word "lazy," and maybe, just maybe, start putting things together for new year's eve. I have to work the next day after that too (though not till the afternoon).

All I'm saying is my check better be looking good after all this.
