[2018] 361/365: Dunkin Donuts
How festive! I love when companies do stuff like that! I went to buy a gift card and figured what the hey! So an iced caramel macchiato and blueberry donut holes for indulgence it was!
I had a drug test today that consisted of chopping off some hair and a saliva test. People think it’s just a few strands but in reality it’s over 100! Literally a chunk. It feels like a buzzcut in that area.
I cannot believe it’s already the weekend soon! Thank goodness!
there are only a handful of people at work today so it went by a fairly slowly but also quickly. Rush really sure how that happens but it just does. After work I went and met up with Michelle and her family at Lupe Tortilla. It was a last minute decision to meet up so Matthew, Claire, Susan and David were all there. I’ve known them for so long and it melted my heart to see David so differently. His Grandpa Bear is definitely showing and it’s so dang adorable.

I was fairly surprised when Claire reached out to me and was okay when I held her. I was able to get a selfie in and Michelle was able to catch our moment. She is definitely Miss Fussbucket as Michelle calls her but she just wants love. Excuse my messy hair … It was raining.
We didn’t get much time together but anytime was better than no time. I cannot wait for them to move back down after Matthew’s residency. Two more years!
The day started out with Sissy making a breakfast casserole for us.
[2018] 359/365: Rizzo’s Christmas Picture
After breakfast we all changed and Rizzo had a quick photoshoot after I rearranged the presents to look more presentable for pictures.
My gifts from the clan. In most excited about the money I got from Lasik from my secret santa and Mum and Dad not shown! It’s going down next year. Who wants to be my designated driver?
We all took naps, played a few rounds of Decrypto, I think it’s called, then all got ready and headed over to Katie’s for our annual Christmas dinner. We opened presents, not shown, and hung out and talked.
It’s a bummer I have to go to work tomorrow though but I guess making money is worth it! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
My cousin, Patricia, came over from England! She is originally from Canada and have been working over there for a while. Brudda, Tim, Patricia, and I met with Sissy and went to a late lunch to Liberty Kitchen. The Lobster Bolognese is still a hit with everyone.
[2018] 358/365: Bouldering
Patricia loves to Boulder so we found a place and picked up Brett and went. I was surprised how much I could do but also shows how much work I need to do to get that strength. Anyone down to go with me?
Out usual Christmas Eve hot pot was a hit. It’s been hours and we are still sitting around and talking and laughing.
It’s been a full day of food and workouts. I am not ready to see how sore I’ll be tomorrow though.
Sissy came over this morning and we all ordered IHOP takeout for breakfast. Afterward we played with Emmy for a while before Sissy, June and I headed to the new skin care store.
We thought they were connected since they technically are but you pay separately. Me and June’s haul. The Panda’s Dream from Tony Moly is one of my favourites! It really does make me feel a little more awake.
I bought the two blue products from It’s Skin. The rest are June’s. Pore tightening serum and moisturizing mist. I just used both of these tonight and so far I’m feeling refreshed.
We stopped by Beard Papa’s, a place we’ve been dying to try. They are adorable but also costly. Each one costs almost $4!
They kept some festivity going with the sprinkles so they get some points there. As for taste, they’re not my favourite. We all agreed it’s not something we would ever crave and to be truthful I felt they tasted pretty much the same. We got vanilla creme in all of them but each shell is a different flavour.
Mum wanted us to take some boba back home to her so I got a Hazelnut Milk Tea from Yan Tea for myself. Verdict? Too sweet and way too much ice. More than half of my drink was ice! I was very disappointed since it’s not cheap at all! Definitely not coming back here especially because they were so disorganized.
[2018] 357/365: Photoshoot at the Park
A quick picture I snapped while the whole family went to the park. It was such a nice afternoon so it was perfect.
Brudda was going all out on his photography skills so I helped by holding a giant flash all around the park. Feeling a little important but mostly ridiculous.
Rizzo was so happy I was finally home and has not left squished next to me wherever I am. Sleepy baby.
