Happy Holiday

So it has been a fun couple of days. I had Chris' family over for Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday and then had a quiet evening with the three of us in the house later in the afternoon. I sent the presents i had bought with my sister to New York and my parents opened them on Thanksgiving day. I bought my Step Mum a clock that i had seen at a Mikasa store at one of the outlet malls here. I thought it was so her, so i bought it on a whim. I don't usually buy anything practical like that for anyone unless they have specifically asked for it. I was a little worried about whether she would like it and was really glad to hear that she loved it.
My christmas shopping is all done for family. I just have to worry about close friends and my secret santa at work. Somehow i managed to pick my boss. Didn't know quite how that happened but she is completely different from the rest of us so it is going to be a tough call. We have to buy three $5 and a $10 gift to give at the work christmas party. We will see if i can find something that she will like.
I am over at Sarah and Patricks again today. I was going to stay home with my pain killers as my knee is hurting, but then i got tired of sitting by myself and watching nothing on tv, so i thought i would come and sit over here where i have some company at least.
I haven't been home much. Mostly just to pick up and go to bed. I have been babysitting a lot and taking left overs from home to eat for lunch and dinner. I do have to be quick about the left overs though because Tom will eat and eat till he is full and eat everything in the fridge. I will make dinner for the three of us and put Tom's in the fridge. He will generally eat the portion for him, a pizza, and anything left over like left over spagetti sauce. It is totally crazy. He has started to over flow into the rest of the house with his trash too. He is now sleeping out on the couch every night because he has too much stuff on his bed and so much stuff of the floor that he can't put the stuff on his bed on his floor any more. It is really kind of frustrating but he doesn't seem to mind that i put his stuff in his room when i am cleaning so it works i guess. I take the money from the groceries out of our share of the bills too, so i can't complain that he eats too much. Sometimes it is frustrating when i have bought groceries for meals and he will cook up two pounds of meat and eat it with onions on bread. I try to buy what he likes and i try to buy quick and easy things for the boys to make but with his need to eat four portions, those things go pretty quickly.
He has a new girlfriend in the picture now. She really has a good way of pushing all of my buttons all at the same time. She sat and told me that i needed to get a hobby because cleaning is not a hobby. I thought, "if you had to clean up after these two guys then you wouldn't have time for a hobby." Then she made a comment about how i don't clean with the right cleaning stuff because i use the clorox wipes to wipe down the kitchen counter. She said that they don't work because the bacteria builds immunities to the wipes or something. She is super whinney and is always trying to pick an argument that she thinks she could win. It drives me crazy because i think that if people like that had to budget on my pay check with my bills instead of having mum and daddy pay for everything so they can have their macy's fucking credit card they can jump up my ass. Patrick had said the other day that it would appear that she acts that way because she is insecure and pumps out information so she looks smarter and picks people apart to make her feel better. I don't know if that is true but it made me feel better to hear that from someone because i really wanted to punch her in the face. She seems like a nice girl but can stay out of my house. He he.
Well i am done for today. I am going to try and write again tomorrow. I never know how busy i am going to be but i am hoping to rest and relax on my last day off for the holiday.
I hope yours has been as fun as mine
Talk to you soon
