I don't feel like I've stopped since I've been home and it's only been all of 3 days!
I got home at 1 am Monday morning, woke up at 11:30am and Mum and I started decorating the Christmas Village. Here is the end results:
Adorable right?! Anyway, we did that, then I had to work at 4 till 8. I'm working at my old job, at Hallmark Gold Crown, over Christmas and into the New Year until I go to the Imagination in March. Then yesterday, I unpacked (most of it) and hung everything up and such in my new 'closet' that my Mum built while I was away. I wrote all of my Christmas cards for all my friends on the ship, bought the presents AND sent them off to the Valor.
Today I worked 8-3 at Hallmark and on my lunch break I went over to McDonalds in the Walmart because I hadn't had McDonalds in 3 months, gimme a break! Anyway, I was sitting there eating and instagramming (obviously) and a lady and her daughter came over to me from the other side of the restaurant to say 'You're beautiful. People don't say it often enough to each other and we just had to tell you.' That has put me in a good mood for the entire day. I don't think anything can bring me down from that one today. There are still really great people in this world and I hope they know even the smallest words can make a BIIIIG difference! Plus, everyone that I run into keeps telling me they're jealous of my tan, or ask if I've just been back from a holiday and such aaaand nope, just been living on a cruise ship for 6 months. And honestly people, I'm glad to be back in snow! I have a hunch that feeling won't last long but for right now, I'm totally okay with it.
Well those are my first few days back and I've already got lots planned for December. Tonight, I'm decorating my Christmas tree with the family. Friday, I'm getting together with some girlfriends for a Christmas gift exchange/drinks - cause who does gift exchanges without alcohol?! Especially since I'm assuming one or 2 of the ladies will be GIVING alcohol lol. I'm going to the play that my Mum is involved with on Saturday afternoon. I'm going to the Sens vs. Leafs game on Saturday night. Sunday is work again with a work Christmas party at night. Both my mum and sister aren't impressed with the fact that I've been back at that job for all of 3 days and I'm already going to their party. Next week is Kingston with my friend Jordan to see my friend Stephanie. I've got an ugly christmas sweater party next Friday and by the way I have the BEST sweater for it! Well maybe not the best, but it's pretty damn good!
We shall see what the new year brings, but if I don't write another post until then, I hope everyone has an incredible holiday season with your loved ones whether it be ship families, or families at home, on land or at sea, or heck in the air if you're a flight attendant. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Feliz Navidad, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Hanukkah, Happy New Year. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night. <3
