Remember when we were younger? The time between Thanksgiving and Christmas seemed like a semester itself! Now that we’re out in the working world, paying bills, taking care of business, Christmas sneaks up on us.
This year was no different. For my festivities, I got up, took a shower and got ready. Wrapped a couple of presents and spoke with my younger sister (hence why I had to do surgery on some of the gifts I wrapped). I had to make that last-minute run on Christmas Eve around 5:30 before the stores closed. Then for some gift exchanging 🙂 I was on the receiving end of some wonderful gifts. At this point in my life, it’s not important to have toys. I’m more impressed when someone is thoughtful and gets me something I will enjoy. **Sprays new DKNY Pure perfume on wrists**
After exchanging gifts and socializing, I was treated to a lovely dinner at Busboys and Poets. I even had a glass of sparkling Shiraz. Hey, it’s Christmas Eve right? It was a clear, crisp, dark winter night. But I managed to keep warm by rubbing hands and hearts.
I love Christmas only to watch us become kids again, because once we get back on the Metro Monday morning, it’s back to being a grown-up.
