Well, as expected, I had a pretty crappy Christmas. Christmas eve was actually the best part. We always celebrate on Christmas eve with my mom's side of the family. That was actually fine.

ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll take pregnancy whenever you can get it (hopefully sooner than later) and the sub will just have to deal!
Seriously. That sucks. I'm so sorry.
