This ws my third Christmas with FH, but sadly we weren't together this Christmas. I hate his work schedule so much. Being he works in car sales and I work in a professional setting, none of our holiday schedules ever line up. What's a holiday for me is a great sales day for him. I went to visit my family this Christmas since FSD11 was with her mom for Christmas this year. It was the first Christmas since we've been together that I didn't spend with him and that was hard. Next year we'll all be together, so that's good.

We have FSD for a week starting Saturday. We'll be doing our Christmas then. Saturday when FH comes home from work, we'll have dinner (I'm thinking something in the crockpot?) and then we'll open presents. We got FSD a portable record player which she asked for, so I'm sure the house will be bopping with Michael Jackson after the presents are opened. Then we're going to watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (FSD's request.)

New Years we still have to plan. We have FSD, which it seems we do every year. I'm sure BM sees it as a great opportunity to get to do something grown up with her husband. Usually we do something kid friendly, but I think this year we're going to do something childfree and have FSD hang out with her grandparents. They haven't seen her in awhile, so they're jonesing for some kiddo-time. I hope we do something fun!
