It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

New lights, same old mess, new hyacinth and same old story.

Been antsy about the advent calendar we've made for each other, a friend also sent us a string of tiny packages, filled with chocolate treats ^^ And kitty has a treat calendar as well, he seems to like it, so far. Yesterday's treats were a bit stiff to go down with him, but by morning, his bowl was nearly empty, with the other treat also gone.

Slice of Life: Loneliness and real friends

Not many realize from my motor mouth personality, that I've been really lonely most of my life. The nearest neighbor was almost half a kilometer away, out of sight. There are a steep hill and dense forest between us. And... the nearest neighbors were mostly younger than me.

Yeah, I grew up without playmates. I had imaginary friends, dolls and stuffed animals. I liked the cats and the cattle, but mostly, I was left on my own devices. Sure, while my dad worked in the restaurant, grandparents with the cattle, I was usually playing either outside or inside, probably under my uncle's supervision. I think. I remember him taking care of me twice alone.

Remembering childhood for me is a painful experience. There are a lot of things I'd love to forget, but also things I'd love to have still around. I loved playing with dolls/toy horses/cars alone, but I do remembering being introduced to the eldest grandchild of our neighbors. There weren't many girls my age along our home …

Slice of life: My life with the paranormal

My family has some traits that we can sense the supernatural. Most notably me and my granny, but maybe to some extent, my late great-grandmother and perhaps a grand-aunt, not sure of my halfsister.
My granny has had it for years. Sure, some things, like supposed footsteps from the floor above, can be explained, but our home is an old log building, boards groan and shift with age. Still, some part of me wants to think it's an old relative, coming to check their old home. My grandmother has lived almost her whole life in the house, from her childhood, until they moved back from southern parts. Her parents have lived there and if I remember correctly, her father built it. He was a war veteran.
He died in the living room, of either a heart attack or a simple cardiac arrest, I don't remember which. Granny said she died surrounded by her and her mother at least, I don't remember were others of the large brood of children there. They were all adults by that time anyway.

Ragnarok Yuletide - Christmas Is Here (accurate lyrics)

-
Northern lights, shining on winter nights,
Warming us deep inside,
Once more a reason,
To uphold our faith, in the human race,
Now as we celebrate this yuletide season

Christmas is here! Let's sing a song together,
Another year, let the music go on forever,
Christmas is here! Bring out the joy together,
Lasting forever and forever 'cause Christmas is here!

Lend an ear, to people who live in fear,
Reach out to be sincere,
Comfort the sorrow

Try to show the way,
To those who have gone astray,
Creating a brand new day, a new tomorrow

Christmas is here! Let's sing a song together,
Another year, let the music go on forever,
Christmas is here! Bring out the joy together,
Lasting forever and forever 'cause Christmas is here!

Let me, to forgive the past,
Searching for the truth that lies ahead,

We all know that the tree will last,
Just like the wise man once said,
Yeeee-aaaaa-aaaaaaa-aaaahhhhhh

Christmas is here! Let's sing a song together,
Another year, let the music go o…
