There are days when I feel more like a coffee machine than a person. Call me the PerkULater! Seriously. I'm not sure if its a result of my galbladder being removed this year or just signs of aging. My coffee goes straight through me. And not be gross, but in almost exactly 45 minutes after I have consumed a meal, I'm in the restroom. Needless to say this has done wonders for keeping all that weight off I lost this past year. BOOYAA!!!
And the brighter side of this ......its a predictable event that has provided much relief of guessing WHEN I'll get "hit" allowing me to schedule trips without worry. See - every cloud does have its lining
So......that's all I have on that subject!
Christmas was yesterday. It was a nice day. Its been a pleasant week although I'm fairly sure I've been walking around with strepp throat. NOT FUN - bad, bad throat. OUCHY!!!
Last Friday we all joined up at the Coyls house. OMG - what a night!! Let's just say there were a few unexpected suprises ..no..... more like secrets that surfaced. Fun - juicy ones. And now that I'm recalling the conversations that night.... I'm still not sure why Dave felt it necessary to tell me 12 times that his friend Kyle has the hots for me. Although it occurred to me later that could make things interesting on the Cleopatra front - muahahaha muhahahha. I'm not even 100% sure theres a connection with those two. I may have it wrong.
Okay - then that same night there was the fight between my brother and his friend (aka a-hole). I don't care who you are, you should be able to go through life without having to HIT someone. His friend (John) deserved it though - so Mike was in the right here. And then there was Meghan. She was cool. I know her dreadlocks would have grossed Rachel out, but Jen seem to find them fun. Pretty girl too. Too bad she wasn't 21 yet, lol.
So it seems our December has held a lot of partying. Kind of nice. Sam's still young - he can take it. But personally I'm surprised I'm not completely worn out. Maybe because it takes the edge off the stress and anything else that ails you. Gives you that little burst of energy and excitement and definitely something to look forward to at the end of a work week. Plus we just have really cool friends.
Let's see the last time I wrote, we met Cliff, Alice, Mark, Steve, Lee, Julie, Mike and Kevin down at the Brewhouse for Happy Hour. That turned out to be a lot of fun. My headache did vanish right before we left the house. My mom came by, so she watched Sammy. But Sarah came with Sam and I and had such a good time. Alice's Mackenna was quite entertaining!!
That Friday,December 11th was Dave's surprise birthday party. He was surprised. Cleopatra got pissed at me -hehe.
The 12th we found ourselves grouping again over at Chrissy and Jaimee's. Sam came home around 3:30 a.m. - apparently its hard to leave when you're the president.
Last Friday we all joined up again at the Coyls house,except my brother joined us. OMG - what a night.
Sam joined the men at a hockey game Sunday - while I rested from the "strepp" symptoms.
This weekend will be the Coyl's Post Xmas Party and we are hosting the New Year's Eve party. WOW - how do we keep up with all of this?
The trick is to provide the snacks and liquor - sit back and enjoy the show. Dosen't hurt to get that perfect group of people together too. I believe we have all taken part in Asshole too. Although my highest achievment to date was VP, I believe I finally have all the rules down. =)
This week my only homework is to come up with a new year's resolution. I picked 3 last year and to the best of my abilities, I stuck by them. I'm actually shocked, but pleased all at the same time. It was a good year. A few moments of frustration, but for the most part a decent year.
I've heard the saying "that which does not kill me will only make me stronger" but this year it took on new meaning. I'm hoping to find lots of pleasure in my new found strength!!
Happy New Years!
