so here it is...

Merry Christmas everyone!! :)

Finally, now the days till Christmas are winding down, the chaotic days at work are finally pretty much over, presents are bought, and I'm more than ready to settle in, get all warm and cozy and enjoy these days of celebration. Today will be a lazy day spent with Adam, remembering how it was a year ago today that I first got off the plane in Manchester and started to make my home here. Tomorrow, Christmas Eve, I work the 10-6 shift, and then home to get ready to go out for our traditional Christmas Eve pub crawl, spend a few hours having drinks with our friends, then home to snuggle with Adam, listen to Christmas music and eat "dog food sandwiches" before we go to bed. Christmas morning we'll open our presents, and then go off to his parents house for Christmas dinner. And then Boxing Day the next day, where the whole family gets together, exchange gifts, eat a lot of food, and play games. So many traditions that have become so important to me over the years, so much coming up in the next few days to look forward to. And I'm ready to enjoy every moment of it :)

I hope everyone enjoys their holiday season. Whatever else is going on in your life, take time out of all of that these next few days to just enjoy the time with your loved ones. This is what's really important <3
