It has come to my attention that I shouldn't drink anymore. This makes me sad ~ no food to celebrate with and now no Drink. Ah, balls. Last night I had 3 glasses of red wine ~ not my max by far ~ I then proceeded to spend the night tossing and turning feeling thirsty and uncomfortable. I just can't drink anymore and I certainly can't over eat to numb myself. How to make it through the next two days....
I know it should be about spending time with people and the experience of it all. But these are family holiday gatherings, THE Superbowl of stress induced drinking! The last time I participated in one of these sober I think I was 10 years old.
Ah, enough bitching. I just made two ice box cakes ~ they are pretty much my favorite ever. I'll be bringing them out to Christmas Eve dinner and will try not to devour them before.
Today ~ I rode a horse and am nursing my hangover before I head to boot camp ~ I am long over due for an ass kicking!
Wishing this Christmas was magical ~ but its just not.
Ho Ho Ho Ho
Oh, Vanessa, I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better.
