Aaw, the Disney movie themed get-together party we’ve been planning will be simplified. Good that it won’t be postponed but the theme was lifted. Since a relative is sick, and while her NC health insurance has been very helpful, it was decided that having a grand party will be inconsiderate of her situation.

The theme would have been costly. We will just go as we are, just like our previous reunions. Well, I’ll miss that supposed photo opp, but it’s fine. I’ll get to take shots of the smiles and hugs shared among relatives. That’s what matters.

Parties are everywhere! Even if we have no work, we’ve been staying up late to attend get-together’s. I think dark circles are starting to show. I hope they’ll be minimized soon, after New year’s eve, maybe?

I’ve been busy shopping for gifts, and meeting up with friends. It is just so fun that for two weeks, it’s no work all play for me. Yes, shopping is definitely play.

I think we’re almost done with our shopping. But I have yet to find a Mulan costume for me, the hubby and the daughter. These are for our Disney-movie-themed family reunion. Good luck to us.

I had a throbbing headache last night so I went to bed early. Quite expectedly, I woke up at 4am today. I was waiting for the golden hour to take pictures of the garden, but when I went out, it was too cold, not only for me but for my lens which had been clouded with fog. There’s no more denying that Christmas is near.

Anyway, I decided to go inside, and just browse for insurance quotes while drinking my coffee. Yes, I need coffee every morning, one way of making sure I don’t have a migraine attack later today. But what triggered my migraine yesterday was eating a bar of Cadburry dark chocolates. Well, I should note that. Eat chocolates ONLY when I’m not going out or to work. :p

Migraine or no migraine, I wish to take lots of pictures this month. Keeping my fingers crossed.
