Christmas Is Ready!

Christmas came and went and it was spectacular with me getting lots of gifts which I didn’t expect but I was elated nevertheless about it; especially when it came from my husband spoiling me and whatnot. I don’t deserve him, honestly. He’s always treated more than well, exceptional really and normal despite me being mentally ill and whatnot. I have a whole list of mental illnesses that I refer to being alphabet because of how stigmatized they are in the psych and wider community of neurotypicals (which my husband is a hundred percent is).Though it’s not a bad thing, it’s just a more difficult thing to worry about because of such differences between him and I. It is challenging to be in a relationship with a neurotypical. Anyhow, Christmas Eve started….

And I got to see my long lost cousin of nearly all my life–meaning I haven’t seen him in about 20 years but I plan on hanging out with him since he lives really close to me in another city…but Texas is Texas so it’s easy to visit him but imagine my surprise when I saw him and he was astonished that I was here one minute then suddenly reappeared nearly 20 years later. We grew up together despite our age differences, as he’s my aunt’s son…but I finally got to meet his SO, who is lovely in all regards and who I want to know better as I want to also meet my younger brother’s girlfriend but her, having lost her mom recently to ALS…it’s been difficult. One of these days, this I promise. Either way, Christmas Eve was great and I got to enjoy El Salvadorian food that’s done on Christmas Eve. I love the food culture of my dad’s side, because it’s so fresh and delicious. Anyhow, Christmas Day! comes and suddenly, I’m at my aunt’s who I always considered like a mom…because she is regardless, and we’re opening presents and I have the most! OMG From my husband as I’ve stated before which is fantastic! I got everything I wanted for Christmas, too!

I got a lot of gifts but it’s hard to cover them all but I love all of them, honestly and my husband and everyone that got me gifts including my in laws which was surprising since they don’t like me much but it is what it is. I’m more than overjoyed that this Christmas went well and that it’s a much better beginning or at least one I can believe for next year–

2025

. I don’t think I necessarily have any New Year’s Resolutions other than to pet all the dogs and be happy which is what I want. I just gotta take care of some things like my teeth and eyes January 2nd, because it’s needed.
