Last Days Before Christmas!

I don’t have much to write about, except that A. flew to the States last week and now I have been missing him for a week now. It does gonna last 25 days more but as a friend suggested they would pass quickly in all the holiday hustle. I believe it is not true, but since it is easier to have people around and to be occupied with a lot of stuff for the time to pass more quickly!

Tomorrow I am leaving to karlovo to see my parents I haven’t met for 4 months now – long it is!! My bro has been here for a week now and we are both travelling tomorrow to our parents’s house.

Two weeks ago we went with A. to Metro Cash and Carry – a big superstore – and I bought some stuff for home – like a bottle of whiskey and good Spanish wine, Christmas German stolen (a typical Christmas German cake), a pan for my mom and a suitcase with wheels.

First, do not blame me for buying cutleries to her for presents – she liked it and wanted it! Plus, it is on a special promotion – Tefal (as the brand of the pan is) chips in the price of it once you bring an old useless pan no matter what kind of brand it is from. They cut the price 30% off – I love it! I have to admit I brought 3 pans as my mom instructed me and thought that I give them all three for recycling you will get a new one for free. That was not the case but still it is worthy.
While I was at Metro store I called my mom to ask her for some presents ideas for my nephew. They did not get a great variety but I picked up two nice books for children – one for drawing figures from 1 - 10 and other puzzle-like. I think they are both interesting and educational which is important for him – next summer he will go to school after all!

I know children like and are happier when you give them toys rather than books but I believe that my nephew has to get used to this idea. Furthermore, my mom bought him a toy, so all in all he will receive a good combination. :-)

Another thing that I am happy about is the new suitcase I bought from this store – they have everything and cheap, but you are allowed to shop only with a club card. Luckily, my boyfriend has it so once in a while you can spot me there!! I am so fascinated by the trolley because it is small and you can carry it as cabin luggage. The other suitcase we have is big big and my bro uses it when he flies back and forth everywhere. Plus, another bag that was my last Christmas present from work but that is suitable for hand luggage and has no wheels. It is really good, sturdy and fashionable from a prestigious world trade but I can’t appreciate it since my bro makes good use of all those. So whenever I travel I have to take a bag to carry with no wheels and usually heavy. Now my mom decided to put my pains at a halt and ask me to choose a good and really useful present for me!! So tomorrow I am going to test it for the first time filled with all the presents and of course some books – another Christmas I have to buckle down because January promises to be black and scary!! Gah!

So if I don’t get a second chance please let me wish you

MERRY CHRISTMAS/ ЧЕСТИТА КОЛЕДА and HAPPY NEW YEAR/ ЩАСТЛИВА НОВА ГОДИНА!!! May you have a holiday season full of joy and happiness! Желая ви радост и щастливи през празниците!
