Someone save me from yet another Christmas dinner!! This will make dinner four in five days and tomorrow, will be dinner five in six days! Oi! I think I will become a turkey or a ham.

But today will be a good day. I'm going to my sister in laws family's. They are good to me and my daughter. They have adopted me and Emma. They all bought her presents. It was really sweet of them. They really shouldn't have, I know how tight they all are with money. But it's the thought that counts.

Emma had a really great Christmas. She's still upset that Santa didn't bring her a ballerina costume. She still doesn't know that her uncle and aunt bought her one. She'll get it tonight when we all get back to the house. I know she will be excited. It is the one thing that she really asked for from Santa besides the ipod that I refused to buy for a five year old.

I spent most of the night writing a Christmas story for my grandmother. It turned out being a spoof of a present that we collaborated to get her. She will love it though.

Okay I have to go now, or else I won't make it for the two hour drive to my sister in law's dad's house. I'm so tired of driving but at least I will have something good to listen too along the way.
