Mac and I headed down to my parents' on Thursday, with my cat Gracie. Hit some traffic, but got down there ok. Spent Friday and Saturday helping my mother cook food (she has IBS as well, so we needed to make food for Christmas she and I could eat). The issue was the food we made got eaten for dinner both of those nights as well, and Mac was bored and kept bugging me to go out and do something, but I was exhausted from traveling, cooking, and I had had bloodwork done on Thursday before we left.
Sunday was spent mostly on the road, brunch at my aunt's, lunch at one grandparents', and dinner at my other grandparents'. I don't really want to get into details, but my family is very dysfunctional and this Christmas was a prime example. Mac and I (and Gracie) headed back up here to Philly yesterday with no problems. Woke up this morning with a migraine though that I'm working on staving off.
Present-wise, cookbooks and DVDs were abundant, plus a few Barnes&Noble giftcards. My aunt gave me a pretty set of earrings, a hooded scarf, and a cute double picture frame. And the food my mother and I cooked was yummy and complimented all around.
But I must say it is good to be back home.
