Happy Boxing Day!


I don't know if it has anything to do with boxes. Actually, when I was a little kid, I thought it was about boxing, the sport! But I don't think that's true. We had Dad's side of the family over today...well, Grandad, Dad's Brother and his son, and one of his three sisters. Geography, divorce, people working, and people having passed away cut down the numbers from what could have been 19 people, to 7. But it's ok, it was overwhelming enough. Unfortunately, there's been a lot of drama in the family, so for years we didn't see them at all. It's good that we can at least spend some time together around Christmas, now. I kind of spent most of the day sleeping and resting though, I'm so tired and I was/am feeling a bit sick today. And I rarely ever sleep at all during the day. I don't shop on Boxing Day either, I hear people get too crazy with the sales, and while I like Delta, I had no desire to be in the city at 6am to see her. I don't even know how anyone managed to get up for that, I was safely asleep in my bed. Well I better go, almost Dinner time- the past 3 days have just been prepare meal, eat meal, clean up meal, prepare next meal, eat meal, clean again, etc etc etc lol.
