Our Crazy Christmas

I hope everyone had a blessed, wonderful Christmas! As always, it flew by! We stay on the go Christmas Eve and Christmas day, going back to my hometown of Roxboro to stay at my mom's house, then Christmas with my dad on Christmas Eve, Oyster stew for Christmas Eve dinner with my mom, sis, nephew and grandparents, then we get up Christmas mornin to see what Santa brought...



...then off to Oxford, NC to visit with my in-laws that come from the beach at my sister-in-law's house. This year we met two brand new members of the family - Max and Miles - that my sister-in-law got a week before Christmas! They are soooo adorable!!!



...then, back to Roxboro for Christmas with my mom, sister and her family...here's a silly pic of us in the car while Mike was driving in the horrible rain!



Then we were supposed to come back to Durham to have Christmas dinner with Mike's cousin's, but the little guy was so exhausted, just Mike came back and we stayed in Roxboro for the night. We typically spend the night in our house Christmas night and then turn right back around the day after Christmas and have lunch and spend time with my grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousin! Whew!!! I needed this whole week off just to recover!!!

Happy Pills

I'm a crazy person. At least, that's what I feel like some times. And it runs in my family. No, not really crazy (and don't take offense if you are one of me), but just clinically depressed and filled with anxiety. It's as if I don't have something to worry about in my head constantly, then I don't feel normal. Luckily, there's a pill for that. It's a bitter pill, one that I'll basically have to take the rest of my life, but I've slowly accepted that it's like any other disease, and just like diabetes or heart disease, that little pill is gonna make me better. But that little pill makes me gain weight, gives me the brain shivers when I miss it, and although I've tried to get off it multiple times, I just can't. So I guess that makes me an addict as well. But it's a pill that my grandparents and family didn't always have, and they suffer from it as well, so I should be thankful for this little red capsule of happiness...
