Xmas is OVER!

Well, the unwrapping and buying gifts part is, now comes the returns and putting things away part. I’ve always dreaded doing that although it has to be done.
Christmas at the cabin was more than I expected, the whole family there --- at least for a while. Early Christmas morning Jacks packed up and drove back home, something is amiss with him. My Pops sat at the dinner table with a gleam in his eye the whole entire time, I suspect he had something to do with it.
Kyle is just starting to appreciate this holiday, he cried because “Unta Dacks” wasn’t there to help him color. Camen had fun enough climbing on the presents and drooling on everything. Lori did a fashion show, and the other smaller cousins have as much fun.
I visited with old neighbors and ate enough for a few seasons, the cabin was beautiful with family rumbling around and chattering. I like spending the holidays up there because you don’t have to travel from place to place to see everyone; we are all happily in one home.
Today, I’m visiting Jacks, making sure he’s ok, since he practically left before dawn yesterday. In his haste to leave he left half his presents under the tree, so in route home I’m playing Santa dropping them off. I also feel we need to have a nice chat, it was me or Luke and he doesn’t want Luke in his face.
I also want to see his new condo, check out the campus and see Shay. Shay is someone we met way back in the Habbo Hotel days. She used to listen to Jacks DJ and make the craziest song requests; she also introduced me to Blogger page when I complained about Xanga.
He’s not too happy that I’m here, “When do I get to acclimate to my environment Mark?” I laughed and told him soon enough, I do know what he means, it seems as if the whole family has made a visit to him at one time or another since he’s moved out. I also know that Jess may bust my chops for invading on them for a day, but it’s just a day and afterwards they might appreciate me being here.
Seems as if Lori might have spilt the beans on Jacks whereabouts to Pops, drama much? Hopefully not but I will feel better just checking the living conditions and knowing the area myself. Soon as he gets out of the shower our day can begin.
