Christmas Soundtrack Day 7 - All I got for Christmas...
Good evening!

I am technically off work now until January. But I think I have written more emails today than I have in the past two months. I am trying to catch everyone before they go off for Christmas, in the hope that I might bag myself some more work next year!

Today’s Christmas track holds some resonance for me, I guess. I, in fact, got engaged last Christmas. No, the Christmas before. Oh, I don’t know! I got engaged one Christmas Day, at some point!

Chris can’t keep a secret. So, I knew it was coming, I just didn’t know exactly how or when.

I got up early that Christmas. I always get up pretty early because I always think I have a lot to do – even on Christmas day. Chris followed me down, not long after, which is odd for him. He had his advent calander with him, and here’s how the conversation went:

Me: Morning! Merry Christmas!
C: Hi. Would you like my Christmas Day chocolate?
Me: Not right now ta. Maybe later.
C: Oh, go on!
Me: Nah – its only 7:30am.
C: Just have the bloody chocolate!!
Me: Sheeeesh alright!

There was no chocolate! Just a ring… he proposed with an advent calendar.

Not only was there no chocolate, but there was no Christmas present either. Just a ring (a pretty ring). All I got for Christmas was him; a husband who leaves socks everywhere… for the rest of my life! *Laugh*
