I've spent time with my family, eating good food, and having a nice time =D
For the xmas dinner i made nut roast again, and had it with potatoes, mashed rutabaga, mushrooms, brussel sprouts, and mushroom sauce =p
I also got some very lovely gifts from my very kind family =D Warm cosy socks, kitchen-stuff, a blanket, shampoo, pyjama, lighting arm band, whiteboard (those are awesome!!!) and a new laptop =D new laptop is very useful because my old one had a battery living time of like 20 secs, and the fan didn't work anymore and it was superslow =p so now i can chill without a power supply for several hours =D
Some of the stuff:
Yesterday i was at my grandma's house for an xmas party, and all my uncles and aunts and their kids were there from my dads side =D She always makes incredibly many yummy cakes, like one for each or so, and several of them vegan, so we all were stuffed xD Then we chilled and chatted =)
Today i will be in an xmas party with my moms side of the family, so i'm looking forward to that =D
I've decided this year is the last one i want to give and receive gifts for xmas. It's just not worth it stressing around trying to find something nice to give to people who has everything or can buy what they need themselves, and i don't want people stressing around for me either. I like opening presents and giving people gifts after i found out what to give (which is the extremely stressing and depressing part because i have a very hard time finding and deciding what to give). It also makes more sense to spend xmastime with my family rather than running around in shops for hours and days searching for things to give them when they just want time with me.
Also since i spend less money on gifts and have more time then, i can use that for good causes helping people/animals in need instead, which is more meaningful than endless shopping and stressing =D
