That sucks!

What sucks? Let me tell you dear Void.

My Christmas rush at work is over. I had my first day when I could relax already yesterday. BUT you know what happens to you body when the stressful time ends?  It gives in and gets ill. And that really sucks!

I was all ok during this hell I went through, not even a slight cold. Sure, my head was hurting occasionally, but that is besides the point. I was completely fine. And now when I could be happily setting off for lovely Christmas, I get ill. Yesterday already my throat started "itching" and in the evening it was hurting so it was really painful to swallow and this morning my nose is runny and I have a tiny ulcer on my lip, inside. My body, my closest allie is turning against me. Not really, but I dont understand how it can push through so much and then give up.

I will spend my Christmas with my parents. I was discussing things with my mother and we decided that I will bring the cake and I will be making a Yule-log, first time in my life. I will let you know how it turned out.

Here we celebrate on Christmas eve, we have nice lunch or dinner and in the evening we open the presents. We dont just open them, one of us is in the role of Santa who takes the gifts out of the bag and whos name is called has to redeem it by doing something, either sing, recite christmas poems or something of the sort. And its really lovely when we sing together, all of us, my parents, sisters and grandmother. THAT is the feeling of Christmas that I will alway cherish.
