festivous holidays...

Merry Christmas Folks .. (if anybody reads this...)

I cooked my first Christmas dinner all by myself! Well, just about. Kev had played army by peeling potatoes and Fonze finished it off by mashing them. It was a bit different this year. We had our late Christmas Eve dinner as usual, but my momma wasn't here, actually, a whole lotta people were not there. Oh well, some people showed up and the food was good. I think my momma really is serious about this married life and living in Manitoba thing ... hmm. On Christmas morning, Robert, Fonze, Roxanne and I had ventured off to Valley River, MB to have supper at my mom's place. After supper, Robert had come back home that night because he had to work the next day and the rest of us had spent the night. We were all being very lazy the next day on Boxing Day and spent most the day reading or watching TV. We finally got going around 6:00 p.m. to make the 6-7 hour trip home. Other than the fog, it was an uneventful ride home!

I think my truck hates me. Seriously now. Seriously? Seriously! I finished paying it all off a couple months ago and it chose then to start breaking down. I have already got an oil change, tune-up, and left bearings put on it. My to-fix list includes: right bearings, u-joint, axle sealants, and a couple flushes. That was before the heater motor went and damn well broke on me! If it isn't one thing, its another! My truck and I are having this love-hate relationship thing going on about now! I love it, it hates me.

New Years Eve. No clue what we are doing! I suppose I gotta try get this heat thing working in my truck before going anywhere. I bought the part for it today so now I just need to find someone to install it for me. HELP! Maybe, I will just hitch-hike to the nearest bar! I need a drink.
