Christmas!!!

So yesterday was Christmas, in some aspects it is the best Christmas I have had in three or four years but in others it sucked miserably. As stated before I am the type of person who cares more about spending time with people I love, then about things money can buy, and on Christmas I did not get to spend that much time with the person I love the most, but before I get to that let me start at the beginning of my Christmas morning.
I was first awaken at 5 30 in the morning when my mom woke up and start banging cabinet door open and shut to cook, I knew I would not be able to fall back asleep so I got up to save my buck eyes I made on Christmas eve. They were all still on pans in the fridge and I did not want them to get smashed, they were already ugly enough, nothing as pretty as Mrs. Crawfords. So I put them in a bowl and asked my mom to be quieter so I could sleep, and I did. I woke up then about 8 30, to the sound of my sister getting dressed in the bathroom. I knew this was my cue to get up. Once I crawled out of bed my family opened gifts. My sister and I both got 450 dollars in cash and then I got from my sister some pjs, a bath plow, and a picture frame with a picture of us in it. I got my mom a set of new coffee cups and then my sister and I both got or pictures taken for her for Christmas. My sister got from me thing to organize her room and closet. Richard my moms bf got gift Card to Harley and thing to go in the garage, which is painted orange and is decorated in a Harley theme.
After opening gifts I helped my mom cook by washing all of her dirty dishes, so fun. About one O'clock when every thing was cooked, and Amanda was already gone to her Bfs, Mom, Richard and I headed to the Bar. Yes thats right A bar. My mom and Richared hang at a biker bar a lot and some of their friends have become like family, and many don't have a real home. I thought it was sweet for my mom to cook for them. My mom and richared together made ham, Turkey, corn, green beans, sweet potatoes, stuffing, and delved eggs. It was so delicious I had two plates, I felt like such a fatty. Anywho I stayed at the bar for a couple hours to get to know some of their friends. After I left the Bar I headed home to try to take a nap but that felled, so I read Twilight until James got off.
James was suppose to get off at 6 but that did not happen. He did not call me till 7. I was so mad, not at him but the movie theater were he works. Anywho I got to his apt about 7 15 and we opened gifts. HE GOT ME WAY TO MUCH. I got a new purse, that he picked out and I actually like, a ipod, and the new flyleaf and Paramore CDs. I got him a pixar dvd with all their minnie movies, the ones that show before all their big movies like toy story and up, the blanket I made, A new jacket, a beanie, and some pj bottoms. After we opened gifts I was expecting to go see his dad and eat dinner with him, but that did not happen. His dad had cooked for us but it was no good by the time James got off. I think his dad was a little upset and told us not to come over, and I felt really bad. I did not want him to spend all Christmas day alone, I still feel bad. So since James and I were not going to eat over there we had to find some other place to eat and so we started calling around, well while we were calling around the movies called James and said they were out of ice and need to use James truck to go get more. Long story short we spent about an hour getting Ice, and let me tell you I was pissed, not at james but the movies, they had ruined Christmas for him and his dad.
After we did or ice run and James put them in the coolers, we ended up eating at Denny's of all places, it was all that was open. So we at a very nontraditional Christmas dinner and set and talked through the long wait. After eating and heading back to James Apt, I soon left. I felt bad but I had to get up at six in the morning and it was already 10 15. So as you can see I had a good but not so good Christmas b/c the people I love did not have a good Christmas. We are going to eat dinner with his dad tonight so I hope that makes up for last night some.

Life durring Christmas break

In the past week has been a typical week for me, nice and some what relaxing. In the past week I have gotten to spend time with four girlfriends that I do not see that often, which I desperately needed. I love spending time with my family and James but sometime I need a break from both, so that I can talk girl talk, and talk about things that I can’t discuss with James or Amanda. Secondly, also got to finish the third twilight book. In my opinion the book is very good, but somewhat repetitive. Dont get me wrong I loved the book, but you can kind of tell that Bella is always going to want to run and see Jake, when Edward did not what her to. I think my favorite thing about this book was the humor that was in it. Thirdly, I got to work. Working retail is a pain the butt this time of year, especially if you are sick, which I was. We were so busy all weekend and today that I did not get to move from the register at all to dump my hangers are take abandons. It sucked even more because about every 10 minutes I was fighting the urge to sneeze. If I did not have to pay bills or fell guilty about calling in sick I would have. Fourthly, I got to make James another blanket; this one is actually long enough for him. I can honestly say I learned how to do something from making this blanket. I learned how to sow, which I can say I hate. My original plan was to iron on the fabric to the felt, but that did not work so I spent six hours hand sowing the fabric on, not fun. And last but not least, I got to spend time with james the first part of the week. We really did not do much, but hang. I tried buying him a winter jacket for Christmas but he was stubborn and would not pick one out. So as I stated in my first blog, my life is not that interesting, but hey what can I say that’s who I am, just plan and simple.

The middle of the blanket for Jame. He does not have a favorite team or anything so this was the best I could do. The blanket is 3 yards long.

Graduation and Goodbyes

It has been a long week, the lest to say. I finished with finals, getting four As and a B for my semester end grades. I am glad to be done for the semester, I wish I was done for good though, like james. Today was a very exciting but bitter sweet day like I expected it to be. I got to see James graduate, as mention in my earliar blog, but I had to say goodbye to his mom. After Graduation we all went out to eat and then we had to say out goodbyes. I told myself that I would not cry, that I needed to be strong for James, but I could not help by to let tears flow like a stream. Once saying our goodbyes and returning home James said that he was actully suppriesed that I joined in with the waterworks as he called it. I told him that, I knew it was probably happen b/c I know I hold his mom dear to my heart and miss her.

When we returned home, the afternoon was vary relaxing, we really did not do any thing special, just lied around and watch TV. I told James we could go out and do what ever he wanted but he said there was nothing he wanted to do. Around 7 o'clock we went to his house to feed animals and then headed to Namis. Namis is an amazing Japanese stake house. We both were not that hungry from eating a late lunch, so we just order the namis special for two, there was plenty left over. I told James we should be nice and give the left overs to Elly, but he said that I was crazy and kept the left overs for himself. After Namis we did the same thing we had done all day, just relaxing and picking on one another. it was I nice day, except for the goodbye.

With James Graduating I do have to say I am a little scared for what lies ahead of us. I know he is enter a new chapter in his life, while I am still stuck in the old one. I keep telling myself that everything is going to be the same and for the most part, our relationship will not change, but there is alway the what ifs. I guess I just will have to lie my worries aside, and have faith that we will get through this new transition in his life together.

Hey, my Name is Rebekah. I have never bloged, but am doing so to keep someone I care very much about informed about my life and my boyfriends life. I will try to make it as intersting as I can, but I am not the type of person who is involoved in that much. Between working, school, homework and managing a relationship there is not much time for anything else. Right now is the week of final exams and I wish so baddly that it was done already but it is not. I should be studying but my brain keeps wondering off. Next friday is going to be a bitter sweet day. I get to see James graduate from college, and give him his Iphone I am dieing to give to him, but I have to tell his mom good bye for a year, I am going to miss her. Anywho I should probably get back to studying.
