121

Friday. Not feeling really better.
Yesterday, I went downstairs to see if Santa had brought me what I asked for. No, he didn’t. I didn’t find a boyfriend under the tree, or near the tree, or behind the tree or anywhere else.
I already had in my mind a nice guy all wrapped up and with a golden ribbon on top.
Next time, if I didn’t get one before next Christmas, I’ll write the letter in German. For now, I’ll try to believe I didn’t get my boyfriend because of the barrier language.

My kids were all happy with their presents. I was happy too, I got one thing that I wanted, not as much as the boyfriend, but ok, I’ll enjoy the set of candle holders that I bought for myself and carefully wrapped and put my name on it. Once I forgot to buy something for me and my kids decided it was because I wasn’t a nice person that year. Try to convince them differently.

I was a bit shocked/surprised. The man got me a Christmas present for the first time.
When I opened the gift I looked at him with a “WTF? Are you freaking kidding me?” face.

He said: “This is to THANK YOU (Merci), from my HEART, for all the other Christmases when I didn’t help or give you anything”.
But come on!! Chocolates in a heart shaped box??? And then he said he bought them with his girlfriend. I don’t know who’s sicker now.

We had lunch, no leftovers so I’ll have to cook today.
This is my Christmas table. I’m recycling jars and putting candles in them. I really love how they look.

I have to bake the cake for Saint Stephen (Stefano) as I promised. So not looking forward to it… 2 days and 4 extra pounds. And this is nothing. I’ll be in Spain for New Year. My cousin’s mother in law asked about 3 weeks ago what did I eat. I bet she’s already cooking. I love Spanish food.

I asked the man to bring a cable to connect the computer to the TV so we could watch a movie. He said OK. Then he wrote a message telling me that it wouldn’t work because my TV wasn’t digital, so he was going to borrow a projector.
So we watched 3 movies on the wall (anything to avoid dialogue).

That’s ‘Jingle All the Way” with Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Then we watched a Disney movie called something like Good Luck Charlie. And the last one called “Arthur Christmas” which I really loved.
I felt the “going to the movies” effect. The last time I went to a cinema was in 2005.

One of the highest points of yesterday was when I got an e-mail from one of my readers saying:

“I’m wearing pink ones!” with a picture attached. I replied “I’m wearing pink ones too”, also with a picture.
I hope to see many e-mails and posts about Red Panties in New Year!
