A bit of a recap!?
Christmas dinner with Pascal's family was fun. The wrappings were appreciated. The gifts too. Boxing day was quiet here. I didn't go to any store. I guess I hate mobs. I did go the next day. I usually buy Christmas stuff for the following year. There is not a lot left, but that's ok, it only means I buy less. I'm a sucker for decorations.
The rest of the week went ok. I was called a stupid French Canadian by a blogger. Only because my English is not perfect. I've never hid that I was French, I might not have the exact same expressions and might have trouble saying what I mean sometimes. But to call someone stupid is a bit childish. Just because that person doesn't master the language to perfection, doesn't mean they're dumb. I've seen worst from real English speaking people.
But it's ok, it's over and done with.
I've been experiencing problems with blogger. I think it's to force people to move to Blogger Beta. Now since so many are moving to WordPress, I decided to check it out. I'm not sure I'll be moving, but I did transfer the bulk of my blog. It took WP only 10 minutes to transfer everything. There are a few cool things on WP, but I'm still learning.
So for a few days, I'll run both to check things out. Most of you have been experiencing problems also with B. Beta. So I'm not sure to go that route.
I did my traditional turkey dinner on Saturday with the traditional Christmas log cake. I always do one just for home. Too many times have I gone to someone's house only to be presented with a bad meal or another version of Christmas.
Not to say that I'll stop accepting invitations, but you know when something only comes once a year and it doesn't live up to your expectations? Well now I make sure I get at least one real Christmas dinner and cake. I do it myself. Other versions might be good, but I just can't give up mine yet.
New Year's Eve we watched a few TV specials and toasted the New Year with some bubbly. The next day, Pascal's mom invited everyone over for some deep dish meat pie. It was about 6" deep. It's a mix of different meats with potatoes covered with a thick crust. It baked all day. We ate like pigs.
I'm glad I was able to make you laugh with my comparison. I told you mine was bigger than his. And some of you called me a tease. I didn't see skin from you guys. lol Besides, the pills have helped me gain a few pounds that I didn't really want. Not to worry, they'll come off and I'll stop teasing.
Yesterday I started moving my stuff. I'm changing rooms. I'm taking over the dining room. The room is square. I won't feel so cramped anymore and my desk will be facing the window. The room is facing West so lots of sunlight. I'll keep moving my stuff slowly through out the week.
My wrists are getting worst. My right arm has been hurting a lot more for the last few days. I have an appointment in February to have them checked out, but I think I'll have to get the tunnel/nerve cut. At least in the right arm. The left is not so bad, yet.
As for work, I'm seeing both doctors next week. We'll see how things are going.
Have fun!?

"Home" Another summer day Has come and gone away In Paris and Rome But I wanna go home Mmmmmmmm Maybe surrounded by A million people I Still feel all alone I just wanna go home Babe I miss you, you know And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you Each one a line or two “I’m fine baby, how are you?” Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough My words were cold and flat And you deserve more than that Another aeroplane Another sunny place I’m lucky I know But I wanna go home Mmmm, I’ve got to go home Let me go home 'Cause I’m just too far from where you are I wanna come home And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life It’s like I just stepped outside When everything was going right And I know just why you could not Come along with me That this is not your dream But you always believed in me Another winter day has come And gone away In even Paris and Rome And I wanna go home Let me go home And I’m surrounded by A million people I Still feel all alone Oh, let me go home Oh, I miss you, you know Let me go home I’ve had my run Baby, I’m done I gotta go home Let me go home It will all be all right I’ll be home tonight I’m coming back home
Have fun!? J
