Being close to my family is a true blessing.
I used to be very..VERY extroverted and I sought out every occasion to socialize.
Spending time with friends whenever opportunity was given was my number one priority.
I think it had a lot to do with the need of confirmation and the need of being a part of a group, having my place and roll.

Time has passed and I turned into the most boring person on the planet.
Well not according to myself but maybe to people around me.
I don’t drink anymore, I don’t party at nightclubs and I eat healthy.
A Saturday night spent on the sofa with husband, some nice cheese and crackers + one of our favorite shows on is to be considered an almost perfect evening.
I do enjoy dinner with friends as much as the next person but not as much as I used to.
And NO my friends haven’t turned boring …its me..not them.

We had a friend over last night to get some help with her computer and she asked, as she was leaving, “ – So when are we hanging out?”. Me and husband admitted right off the bat that we are trés unsociable.  With children not the same age as well as different priorities in general makes hanging out a tad much effort for a workday.
I guess I have just found a new context and a new role to play that agrees much better with who I am nowadays. I’d even classify it as pure awesomeness to be honest.
The power of choice is magic.

Christmas is almost here and I, as you know, love love love this time of year.
2015 years celebrations will take place at my parents in law and I am so looking forward.
My brother and his beloved Sara (+baby bump) will be spending the holidays with my parents on the mainland. Shopping is progressing in an orderly fashion and according to plan.
Candles and open fires in the evenings. Quality time with the kids and husband.
OH the joy!

I have a Lucia-celebration to attend  and stuff to get done.
