While I wasn’t able to spend Christmas with all of the people I loved, I had a very enjoyable holiday; I hope you guys did, too.  The Boy and I exchanged gifts, my Granny gave me a beautiful bracelet, and I even bought myself a few things. 🙂 Southern Parents and I will exchange our gifts later.  Since I wasn’t able to travel to SC, I shipped my gifts to my Godmother.  I’m not sure they reached her in time, but she told me not to worry.  I’m salty with USPS though, because it looks like my package was chilling in Atlanta for 2 days….there’s nothing I can really do about it, but I’m still pissed.

I was able to hang out with some old friends and meet some new acquaintances at two holiday parties earlier this month.  At my PT job on Christmas Eve, two of my co-workers were surprised with a gifts from our team members.  I was very excited I could take part in making someone’s holiday a little bit brighter.  And it warms my heart when deserving people are pleasantly surprised.  And I must say that I blushed a little when The Boy called me last night and told me he just wanted to hear my voice. *hearts in eyes* (Ok, enough with the swooning.)

All in all, my Christmas was great.  I ate what I wanted, including Southern Mom’s Apple Cake she baked just for me.  I plan on going to do some light shopping today, not Christmas related, but for some essentials that are needed.  And I may even take myself to the movies, courtesy of one of my gifts, but we’ll see how my day goes.  Until next time, I’m just a Southern girl…in the city!
