I need to post becasue it's Christmas

I just had a wave of emotions come over me. It feels like I am going to throw up, so I'll write about it.

It's Christmas.

Christmas is an odd time.

I had a relative, a good friends Dad, and an old neighbour die in the past 2 weeks.

That brings up the emotion of loving everyone in my life more than ever.

Also, in 10 days, my family and I are going on a family trip,
the trip is a gift from my parents,
all we need is spending money.
That makes my heart happy and I love my parents so much becasue they are SO wonderful becasue I relaize that not everyone get this opportunity.
My boyfriend will be staying in Saskatoon. I am going to miss him so much.

This weekend we went to a Christmas party. One of the big things at the party was Rock Band . I hate Rock Band, and video games in general. My sweetheart likes videos games, but not crazy like. I have had experiences with children and adults (or, in this case, bigger children), that have not been good. The experience with the child was that the child was very spoiled and was very dependant on their video games. The experience with the adult was worse. I did not grow up with video games and I would like to think that I turned out ok.

My boyfriend and I have talked about this, and I know that things change and not everyone is the same. It's just hard to shake experiences.

You know how you have friends that you wish you could spend more time with? Ones that are cooler than cool? Well, that would be my friend B . She got engaged this week. Congratulations. She deserves all the happiness in the world. I love her.

Good night.

So today...

was the day of our Care & Share lunch at school. Our bussiness partners, WBM, come in every year and serve an AMAZING turkey dinner to our students that is cooked by a well known Chef in the city.

Special guests always come,

Mr. Rathwell, the Director of Education, came, who

let me graduate when I was 4 credits short in high school
who gave me my job
who told me to call him back after I couldn't be on the sub list becasue I was screwed over by my Tech school (SIAST)
who hired me as an EA even after he no longer had the job of hiring EA subs
and knows me and always addresses me by my first name. I know it's not much, but its huge to me.

I love him.

and Santa came too.

and

Mr Brad Wall, the Premier of Saskatchewan came. He served Turkey and stuffing to everyone and was so nice to one of my little special needs girl that I work with when we went through his lone.

A very nice man.

I didn't take any pictures though.

My Dad usually comes to it every year,
but missed this one.
