Christmas

I think this is the best Christmas too date.  So, many great things and great gifts.  Best of all is being home with my hubby to celebrate.  So far being home has been great.  And then this week we are off to San Diego again to go to the Raider game on Sunday the 30th.  And, have some friends going with us but everyone can come tail gate with us.  And, then when we come back from the game our neighborhood is going to have a block party for New Years.  So, of course we are joining in on that.  Given how cold it is, if you are coming to the block party, remember to bring your sweeter or jacket.

So, so far things have been great.  My husband and I are home for good now.  My brother came home to visit and so did my cousins.  I have medical insurance now.  And we spent Christmas Eve at my parents house and then Christmas Day at Brandon's cousins house.  And, then went on a long ass walk today. So, it has been kind of hectic but good no complaints.

Home Sweet Home

I am beyond excited to be back Home.  And just received some fabulous news.  I am going home for good on Thursday.  I have so much to do like all the Christmas decorating.  And I may make it a cyber holiday every year because the online shopping was fun.  And then waiting for the boxes and wrapping them all was exciting.

So as of Thursday I will be home for good.  Because my husband is coming home on Friday and then not going back until next Wednesday and then will be home for good next Friday.  So I am going home on Thursday to get my practice on and to be able to be a little more independent.  Cause the only thing I really think this injury is messing with is my memory.  So, I don't know if I ever will be able to become a LCSW.  But so far god has been good to me.

Given I have this damn injury and no memory which is all a blessing in disguise.  My finances are ok, and I haven't worked in over a year. And we still own our home.  Only bad thing is not having any insurance so I am still working on that.  So it is in the process so, I should have it real soon.

But, I still have a lot of things to look forward to.  For one, being home and decorating and getting some Christmas shopping in.  And of course getting to see my niece and cousins for Christmas.  And then we are going to the Raider vs. Charger game in San Diego on December 30th.  And, we are going to make a weekend out of it down in San Diego because we love that city.  And by then I will already be home or good.  So we are leaving for the game on Friday and then making our way back after the game on Sunday.  And we are planning on having a huge tailgating party. So everyone is invited to come down and join us.

And then on December 31st we are going back to our tradition and hosting a New Years party.  And this year my husband talked to our neighbors so it is going to be a New Years block party.  And anyone which is everyone is invited to attend.  So, I hope everyone comes.  Like all my cousins and close friends.  Cause we are having a real nice big party with a DJ and everything.  And, god knows we have enough room if anyone wants to crash.  Just bring your own pillows and blankets.

But overall things have been ok, in these neck of the woods.  Just still focused on my recovery and then all this extra great stuff on top of it.

Thanksgiving Vacation

Our Thanksgiving break was great and we got to go to Alabama.  So we got to spend time with family.  But the beginning of our trip was rough, but we got to see a little bit of Dallas.  Cause we were 2 minutes late to our connecting flight we had to stay the night in Dallas and the airlines did not pay for any thing at all.:(.  So we didn't arrive until Wednesday and then it took use like 4 hours to go 45 mins cause the car kept on breaking down.  And then the car ahead of us with family got a flat tire.  So our arrival came with so much drama.

Ok, so then Thursday was game day and we had good eating and I've gained some weight and so has Brandon.  So time to start dieting.  Then on Friday we headed back down to mobile and saw his mom. And Saturday our cousin Alana had a family gathering at her house and we saw the USC game and a lot of cousins there.  And then Sunday was a church day.

And then the rest of the week we had fun and saw family and went fishing and then on our last Friday we  went to the shooting range with our cousin Jason and I shoot a little bit and had tons of fun.  We were out so late with cousins and then Saturday night flew back home :( it went by so fast.  And then Sunday it rained all day so we spent time with the dogs and doing laundry.  And my whore peanut is pregnant so if you are interested in a pup hit me up.

So now I'm back at my parents house, with my dog and everything is ok over here I just hate not having my independence.  So I am praying my husband grinders out the next 3 weeks and then I can go back home and be a little bit more independent.  And maybe when I get back home I can journal everyday.

So, all in all for thanksgiving I just missed my cousins, the drinking, and the shopping all which I love.

So hopefully for Christmas it will be great too.
