Is X-mas all around?

When Christmas feel like any other weekend something is not right. Well this year there ain't Christmas spirit that can catch and touch me!!!
It was a tight weekend like any other, a big mess all around anywhere you'd need to go for lunch(in the days before), an aunt (which I don't see that often) went on holidays to Brazil and most of all absolutely no feeling of peace, love, understanding and forgiveness!!!
Only 3 things made me actually feel like Christmas: the look in Americo's eyes when he opened his gift, being around my granny and a party with some new old friends I didn't see for a while!

If this weekend was Christmas I start to believe Xutos & Pontapés (a Portuguese rock group) are right and the world is actually upside down.

Well... maybe not!!!

Merry Christmas

I'd like to wish a Merry Christmas full of peace and may you have a great new year!!!

Well... maybe not!!!

Is it just me?

Quiz question?
What would you answer when your dear brother asks you: Can I borrow your car?
Before you answer let me give you some data sheet: my car left yesterday from the garage after staying there for 3 days (during which I took 1 h by public transportation or asked a few colleagues to give me ride to/from work), for an almost 600€ paint job repair, of some scratch he did to it, against a wall (of course is paying it)!!!
Ok! I know it's Christmas but I'm not on the mood...I'm not on the spirit yet!!! Sorry!


Well... maybe not!!!

Até os comemos

Como dizia um senhor sentado na fila atrás da minha:" esta m*rda é um inferno, c*r*lho!!!!
e parece que foi mesmo!!!!

aqui ficam os highlights da coisa!!! ->

Ou então... não!!!

X-mas

Christmas is coming whether you feel it or not!!! Every shop keeps you reminded but somehow is doesn't feel like Christmas at all!
X-mas was having time!!! Time to think about family, time to think about gifts, time to look for something special or something different, time to surprise someone!
X-mas was 5 days or scouting, getting home and enjoy family time! X-mas was gathering your family, was having time to visit your friends.
X-mas used to taste differently!
Well x-mas can always be time to forgive, to start up again, to renew something!
Maybe what changed wasn't X-mas! Maybe is still the same and I was the one who lost time!!! Well I can always still make things new!

Well... maybe not!!!
