Back to the Future
Dec. 30th, 2013 06:10 pmHello flist. This entry was meant to be posted on December 26th but I had a tight schedule on that day and we left for Normandy before I could post. Since our house there has no wifi (of our own or that we can "borrow") I couldn't properly update my journal before today. So let's pretend we're still the 26th, shall we?
Christmas came and went and we had a wonderful time, both on the actual day with my family and on the 25th with my family in-law. Good food was consumed both times (our stomachs sure work overtime this time of the year, don't they?) great presents were exchanged, tiny babies were hold, Santa was tracked, toddlers and little girls were hugged and kissed, laughters were shared. All in all, a great Christmas all around :)
Le Père Noël was very generous, once again (and apparently knew all about my Night Vale love as he got me two Night Vale shirts as well as a Night Vale community radio mug! ♥) and made it so I could do a lovely little Christmas book haul :) ( So here it is )
There, that was my post-Christmas entry (Boxing day entry?). Since then Cookie and I went to Normandy with the parental unit where we had a very relaxing time. Incidentally, my parents got hooked on Downton Abbey. Mom watched the first season last month or so and loved it, so we got her the three seasons on DVD, which she'd taken with her. We sat down to watch the pilot (which I'd actually never seen!) and Dad got hooked on it immediately. We watched a second episode... and by the end of the weekend the first two seasons had been mainlined and we were halfway through the third. My parents' very first tv marathon... I'm so proud! ;) Actually, we're now back in Choisy but I'm alone at home as Cookie is at theirs... they're planning on finishing the third season tonight. Another pimping success story!
Speaking of Downton Abbey, I'll be following their lead tonight and watching the Christmas Special that aired last week myself, since I still haven't had the opportunity to do so. And whenever I'll get Cookie back, we'll watch the DW Christmas Special as we still haven't watched it either! See, we have much to do yet ;)
