Me & My Muse – Day 2362: Christmas Aftermath

With Christmas being over, I will now share with you the Christmas that I experienced.

When I woke up, my brother was the only other person up.  I did my devotional and waited for everyone else to get up.

Eventually, my parents woke up.  We then had a breakfast and sausage casserole for breakfast.

After that, we started opening the gifts.  This is what it looked like before.

 

Muse:  Wow!  That’s a lot of gifts!

I know.  This is what it looked like after we opened them.

 

Muse:  That reminds me of the gifts that I opened couple days ago.  The tree looked just like that when we were done.

It always does.  But it was fun while it lasted.

After that, I took inventory of my gifts.  For those of you who are wondering, this is what I got for Christmas.

 

Muse:  That’s a lot of gifts!  For me, I got mostly books this year.

I know.  I’m guessing that you had a good Christmas.

Muse:  I did.  All the Intangibles came over to my house and we celebrated Christmas there.  Besides books, I got some jewelry, some lipstick and a couple of electronics.

That’s a lot of good gifts.  Moving on with the recap, I got ready and I went over to my grandparents.  Me, my brother, my parents, my sister and her husband, my grandparents, my aunt and uncle, my cousin and his wife, and my other cousins all had dinner, white elephant, had dessert, and came home.  The dinner was prime rib, mashed potatoes, zucchini casserole, green beans with slivered almonds, baked carrots, brussel sprouts, potatoes, and apples, black and green olives and spinach salad with pepe, corn, craisins and feta cheese.  The desserts consisted of sweet potato pie, lemon pie, chocolate vegan pie, raspberry pie, pear pie, and peanut butter stuffed chocolate balls.  I took a piece of lemon pie, chocolate vegan pie, and raspberry pie, and had a peanut butter stuffed chocolate ball before the gift exchange.

Muse:  That’s quite a spread!  The food that we had was a little different, since not everyone there liked Tangible food.

Well, that’s the gist of it.  Having shared that with you, I now need to get ready.

Muse:  I need to ready myself.  See you later!

I really need to get going so I can enjoy the rest of my day.  With Christmas over, I’ll be enjoying 11 more days of vacation (including today).  Today’s high is going to be 56 degrees and the silver lining is being able to enjoy this whole day and being able to enjoy my Christmas gifts.

To those of you who are enjoying your new gifts, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse: I may be a Hylian Muse, but I’m going to stay in this fairy form a little longer. Besides, I get to be a Hylian Fairy Muse! I got a lot of gifts this year! And with all those new books, I’m going to have a lot of reading to do. Tee hee…
