Living in a suitcase (Travel & Technology): Christmas Celebration @ Home

My Christmas celebration wasn't that bad after all apart from getting lesser sleep, I still managed to survive on Christmas day itself. I went to the dawn mass at 5am (the last 9th day) on Christmas Eve, woke up at 4am that morning and I still have to go to work. Then I attended the midnight mass at 10.30pm till 12.30am and then back to church again for the Christmas Day mass at 9am. We have Christmas open house in the parish hall after the mass and head back home to have our own open house. It was raining heavily that morning and I was soaking wet and cold (my dad just installed 2 new aircon in the extended living room and dining room).
All I wanted for Christmas was to sleep! But we have a lot of guests that day, it was hard to catch even a short nap. We had visitors until 10.30pm, I was on my feet all day and I was really exhausted. I woke up at noon the next morning!!! I had a lot of text messages on my phone when I woke up, mostly invitation to open house and I could only manage to go to one house.
Anyways, I enjoyed my 5 days holiday and now I'm back to work. I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to the new year but it is better not to have any expectation or else I'll be disappointed. Just leave it in God's hands to decide for He knows what is best.
