I think people should feel things. Indifference upsets me. That's it.

I had my Christmas with my Bopp family and it was AWESOME! We had a great time, played games, ate yummy Mexican food, talked Politics, played trivia, exchanged gifts, and drank wine. Everyone seemed to love the things I made for them....MITTENS! I'm making mittens for everyone out of recycled wool blankets from thrift stores, and silky fabric for the lining. They're pretty, and soft and warm, and loving. I loved making all of them, and everyone, even Ryan seemed appreciative. I also make "create your own tumblers" from sbux. I printed photos of myself for my stepmoma, dad and grandma, and made a cool one of the S-Bahn in Berlin for Ryan. I hope they love those too.

I received some fantastically wonderful presents! Candles, socks, a gift card to Michaels (which I just used today and bought stationary, notecards, yarn and a calendar that I really wanted). I'm excited about all of that!) a digital picture frame (cool!), a monetary gift from grandmama, some towels, an egg poacher, and I think that's about it.

My friend Lisa just got a job at H&R Block and said I could probably get a job there too. It's full time with benefits so I think I'll go to the job fair on Wednesday to check it out. Maybe while I'm doing that, I can go to school to become a nurse and then have true job security. We'll see how the world turns out for me.

Night! I'm off to bed.
