Slowly, but surely, the catching up is happening. đ
Christmas this year was a bit of a mix of emotions. Some personal stuff was going on and I was extremely homesick as it just doesnât feel like Christmas when the weather is warm and the only Christmas cheer is that of commercialism – everything I hate about what Christmas has become.
Being with family and those I love is what this holiday means to me, so it was a little difficult to adjust. However, I wanted to share the day with my new family in Abu Dhabi. Most of my closest friends here came over to celebrate. We had a âWhite Elephantâ gift exchange and a potluck dinner. I made the turkey and stuffing, while others brought wonderfully tasty additions. Overall, it was so lovely to have a way to share with those who are near and dear!
