Personally, i think the Holidays have been very quiet here. i mean, we did all the usual - The Aunt, The Other Relatives, etc but somehow i didn't get frenzied this year - which was a very nice change of pace. my Solstice was quiet also, but very, very nice. Master and His Aunt got me some nice kitchen equipment -Knives! Calphalon pots! i feel the urge to chop and saute....
We took both pups over to The Aunt's house and they were... well behaved! By the time we got home, they were unable to keep their eyes open and were like two over tired children at the end of Christmas day... right to bed with them. Master and i got to have a quiet night with cups of tea to settle our over-fed bellies and then we hit the sack also. Nice.
No holiday bonus this year...Wah! Very sad, but a bonus is a gift and not to be expected. However, i did get a nice, very nice raise and a teriffic review. i did get a very unexpected gift from my clients - some of the Ladies there chipped in a got me a lovely business card holder. In the 25 years my company has been taking care of them, no one there has ever given a gift to us. my bosses feel this is a direct reflection of the relationship i've built with them and acknowledge that i saved that part of our business! That, my friends, is better than a bonus! Now, if things go as anticipated and i end up going on the road as part of my job duties this year.... :-)
