We've been low on cash for awhile and stopped having huge gatherings, but this year my dad wanted to go see his parents so we dropped in on their party. It was nice though, everyone was glad to see us. My parents made me some homemade gifts, and my boyfriend bought me my favorite candy: Sour Straws. [drool] I bought home a buttton of tamales and desserts as well.
That was good of your boss to give you the day off. What are you going to do on future Christmases? Is your family going to come visit you? And you're welcome for the treat. :D

That's nice! So glad to hear you got to see some family. [:)] The most important part of the holidays is family, so it doesn't matter whether or not you can get everyone lavish gifts. Spending time together is most important. [:D] Glad you got to do so!
Well, our Christmas celebration isn't really out of town for me. It's close to where I am now, and will be equally close once I move (moving about an equal distance from my Mema's house in the other direction). It's just that the party goes on all day, so I couldn't have worked without missing a significant portion of it. We were there from about 2:30 to 10! For reference, I'm usually scheduled from 12 or 1 to 6 (yeah, short shift. Can't get enough hours at work... but that's another conversation entirely).
