I missed my family, but we ended up having a good time. My wife's aunt and uncle came from the Dominican Republic to visit their daughter up in West Palm Beach. They had a huge party, so I felt good being around family.
We Dominicans celebrate more on Christmas eve. It's usually a full blown party with lots of food and dancing all night. There is usually a break in the party at midnight to open presents. Even the kids stay up.
Christmas day is more of a resting/hangover day. I got lit and came home like at 3am. Good times.

Honestly was a meh day. More of a typical football Sunday with a few gifts. Food was good though. Having issues with my mom. Her mind is shot at 74. 2016, was a bad year for her. The last two months have sucked, she can't remember shit and has just been mean to everyone. She didn't even want a Christmas this year. I said me and step dad would cook, and have a relaxing day. Nope. I did buy her some gifts, so I did what I could. I'm so frustrated because I can't help her and i go from frustrated to the hulk in 2.1 seconds. So I limit my conversions with her to roughly five minutes. This sucks.

Not a bad day. Got to sleep in and relax most of the day. Had to put in some face time at my Dad's, but he and his wife gave me a nice gift certificate to Best Buy, which was cool. Dinner sucked, because Dad can't cook, and his wife thinks she can, but she can't. He spent a ton on a beef tenderloin and totally cooked the hell out of it, making it pretty much inedible. I got to hang out with my sister and her two dogs, though. Her one dog is pretty old and not doing well, which breaks my heart. Back home now, drinking whiskey and coke.

That's actually how we found out my grandmother had it. Sounds weird I know. But she became irritable to everyone, even her grandchildren who she adored. Turned out, she had Sun Downers Syndrome, which is the beginning stages of Alzheimer's.

I lost my mom when I was 22 and still in the service; she had colo-rectal cancer and it took her quickly, only a few months after diagnosis. Once it spread to her liver, it was Game Over as they was little they could do back then in 1974.
It sounds like Alzheimer's is your mom's ailment, or something similar. That is a nightmare, as you lose the parent you knew LONG BEFORE they actually die. I honestly don't know how you, TC and others even deal with it.

Thanks guys. Watching my father waste away physically from cancer was painful, this is worse imo. As has been said she's went from forgetful to needing to use GPS to go three miles to the grocery, to just being flat out mean. To anyone. Then there are days she's just fine. I watched her pay for a woman's groceries not long ago. That's the kind of woman she was / is, very kind. It's gut wrenching now, she did go to a neurologist 2 weeks ago but he made his evaluation based on six year old scans, fucker. Now she's not sure if she wants to find another doc or not. Plus she was going to a place for 5 days to be evaluated, she keeps putting it off. My step dad wont help because she just screams at him, my step sister is in Georgia, step brother is in jersey, the only people that confront her are her AA sponsor and me, but quite frankly we are both tired. I'm fuckin lost. I want to kill that doctor. But yea, I'm pretty sure its Alzheimer's or something like tapout said.

Wonderful christmas. Barely drank. Spent my time doing some repairs I had been putting off for when it wasn't 110+ degrees. Mostly 55-60 all weekend. Patched a roof and fixed this shitty noise my heater venting was making. Also finished up my work bench. Trying to transtorm the garage out here into a full blown 4x4 and boat workshop.
Had some nerf gun and slingshot battles with my nephew. Lil guy is getting sharp at warfare. His grappling and his striking, particularly his kicks, are getting much better. His kicks I have to legit watch out for, he throws them from off angles and because he's only 9 and I'm a giant to him, he doesn't hold back. We saw some deer, an owl decided he liked our tree in our yard and we got to watch an owl do its thang. For us city people, that's a treat. I'm sure some of you get that year round. Hell, a sky full of stars is a treat.
I went up to the hill to have a puff and my girl is cleaning up. Gonna take one more lap on the Rhino with her then clean it up and put it away...until next weekend lol.
Best Christmas in years for my family. Stoked and I feel a great sense of appreciation. Hard work pays off and all, but you can't buy the love a family that is taken care of brings.
As far as gifts, got a 1000 box of 7.62. Some cool decor for the cabin and some random stuff I wanted. Got a straight razor for shaving, my first. Get the stitch box ready...

Thanks man I appreciate it. It's a very odd process, grieving over someone.
