Home (pt2) in A Day in the Life of Me

Xmas Day
Got up way earlier then I planned, 8am AFTER tossing and turning for half an hr.. ugh.
Could hear the dog whining down stair, but couldn’t tell if mom was up, so went down to let him out, only to realize the doors weren’t locked, and that one of that cats was out that I was sure a) i locked before bed b) had let in last night, put out the dog, came back in to see Mom come out the bathroom, so I got us brekkie and tea, sat around for a lil bit, then at 9 went up and got D outta bed.
After a bit we opened gifts, i posted a couple vids to facebook of D and Mom, got pretty much everything I wanted.
D decided he wanted to go for walk get some fresh air, so we rugged up. Folks place is out in the country, by the ocean (fishing community), and the winds were high, so I took him down to the rocky beach 5 min walk from the house.
Found a couple washed up bouyes and dragged them home. D was gonna take a video of the surf, but I told him there was to much wind and the sound would be shit so he took pics instead.
My niece, nephew and sis came by about 15 min after we got back, they opened their goodies, and we all sat around talking for a bit, then we put the turkey on, and they left.
decided we were hungry, went to town got some cheap burgers from macdonalds, and took D on a mini tour of town. He’s never really seen much of it, so we took him around some of the sites, and pointed out different things, like the Widow walks on some of the old houses, places mom used to live, areas we used to go hang out at, things like that, my old high school etc.

went home to discover the bird cooked faster then we thought, so i jumped on making the apple pie i had brought for dessert, they got the veggies ready, and then we all ate to much lol
Mom and D cleaned up in the kitchen and i de-boned the turkey, then went and had a nice hot bath.
after we had more booze and played more cards and generally sat around shooting the shit.
D had to much to eat and ended up going to bed early as he wasn’t feeling 100%.

Boxing day
Up early again for some reason. dunno why I always sleep in when I am home.. got up went down stair, me and mom tried to plan out something for the day, we didn’t really do much in the morning.
We ended up back up stair in moms craft room because D started talking about some stuff he wanted to go look for when we got back to the city.
Nothing is open on boxing day except drug stores, but it had been a long time since I had been home for boxing day, I’m usually on my way back into the city, so we still had a few hrs to kill so we decided to go in and see what we could find. Found a couple sales, left happy, then on the way home mom decided (cause it was actually a nice day) to take D on some more sight seeing. So we headed out to the light house. Stopped off in a lil spot called False Harbour (aptly named) and walked around the cove a bit collecting seashells and bits of sea glass, then went back to the car and across the road to the other side where all the swimmer go. tide was out so it was a good time for a bit of beachcombeing and walking around, then drove up to the light house, and after that headed back home.
Mom mentioned she might have some of what he was looking for already. We probably spent a good half hour digging through her treasures and ended up finding mostly everything he needed for what he was planing on doing! D was back down stair getting ready to have a shower while me and mom were still upstair, and I came across Dads last guitar in the spare bedroom, took it down stair to show D, and ended up saying that I was planning on telling mom i wanted it if she ever wanted to get rid of it. Its nothing fancy, not like he used to have, just a acoustic 6 string Yamaha, but mom was on the phone when i came across it.
Took it back up, she was still on the phone, told her in passing that the guitar goes no where without me knowing, when she got done her call, she asked why, and I told her.
Well… guess who now owns a 6 string acoustic Yamaha, and tuning kit and cleaning kit?!
This girl!
no clue how to play, Dad tried teaching me when I was younger, but was a horrid teacher, and I a horrid student. He was amazing player though.
Its still home, I have nowhere to store it here.

We had supper, started getting stuff packed up for the morning and dug around up stair for some other things we were looking for.
We settled in shortly after and watched some TV. Planned on going to bed early, but after a show and then a movie, me and mom remembered some other things that needed dealing with packing wise, and it was 130 before i got to bed.

6am came early. got up packed the last few clothes/food items and then sat and had breakfast waiting on my step brother (next door) to get up and come get us.
7am we were on the road, by 1030 we were back home car unloaded, i made a few quick item changes and back in the car to the mall. I had an nail apt at 11 and actually made it, then met back up with him and his wife, went down to the food court where they treated me for lunch, then it was off to work for me at 12.

And the rest is history
Now to get through new years.
