::HoMe ReMeDy...

Merry Christmas everyone! At first, I kinda cancelled Christmas for myself this year, but I took it back on Christmas morning. I refused to be depressed because Christmas wasn't gonna be as close to perfect as I'd wanted it to be. I've learned to catch myself as soon as I feel like I'm slipping into a depression, to get myself right out of it just as fast. There are so many things in life to appreciate (i.e. life, health, strength) to be depressed. I think that sometimes we can allow ourselves to be more down that we have to be. I just learned to not allow myself that, and I've been better off because of it.

The great thing is that I got to wake up to my baby on Christmas morning in spite of the tension we'd had the night before.

He's been really good to me and I could not ask for anything more... right now.

It doesn't take a lot to please me. I've learned to appreciate the little things, just a little effort goes a long way with me, and he seems to finally be understanding how right I am for him. -lol-

I'm actually house-sitting for some family friends right now for the week as they're spending their Christmas vacation out of state, so I have their house all to myself (and my bf... but no one knows that, of course. So shh! Keep that on the low for me.) ;)

It's great. He just picked me up from work, and fed me, we'll prolly shower, and then go to bed.

It's cool. We chillin'.

I just got over this damn stomach virus I've had for the past 6 days. It's like during the holidays, I just can't not be in good health. I kept trying to trackback and remember what I did last New Year's and I remembered-- the reason why I couldn't remember what it was I did was not because my ass was drunk but because I didn't DO anything. I was sick with the flu in bed. I remember, I came home, finally excited about having a break from school, and I was sick the entire break, so I was really depressed.

This time, it's the same thing, some kind of virus. Thanksgiving this year, it was the head cold, and now Christmas, it's a stomach virus that has had me... well you know how that feels. I feel better now, though and you'll never believe why, well maybe you will. My dad and stepmom had me drink some flour water. Yes, that's right flour water. Some kinda home remedy. I was eager for ANYTHING to cure me after all this money I was spending on medicine and I SWEAR after five minutes, the five days of pain were over and I've been better ever since, so next time, I'll remember to ask mom and dad about those home remedies before I go and throw my money at Tylenol, Nyquil, Theraflu (NEVER AGAIN!!), and everybody else cuz I SO believe they just make that stuff to make you even more sick!

I got some disappointing news yesterday about my financial aid being DENIED, so Idunno if I'm going to be able to move back to Gainesville anymore, so... we'll see. Idunno if that's a good or a bad thing just yet. Maybe it's neither. Maybe it's both.

But ANYWAY, Just wanted to say heeey and Wish everyone a blessed holiday season and a Happy New Year (in case it's not by then you hear from me... but I'll TRY!!) ;)

Now, I'm off to bed... the only thing is, these people's heater is NOT working and idunno why. I'm too afraid to light the fireplace cuz I think Imma end up burning down the house, so... I called the owner and asked him and he says the furnace needs fuel or whatever, so I told my bf he'd better keep me warm tonight... but get ya mind right, we ain't gettin' freaky. We're just gonna cuddle, make out for a minute... or two, and go to bed. He told me I HAVE to sleep in tomorrow, so we'll see... I can't stand staying in bed for too long, but I guess being in his arms will make it worth it... *Nite* & THANX for checkin up on me... I think I've found my cure... Holla!
