Obessions of December

Obsessions of December

Heaven on earth is (besides my favorite heels dealer) a small place in Bavaria where I always spend Christmas with my family. And every year December is the month to prepare to go there: for the gifts - to give away, and the ones Santa might bring (aka heels, high heels, peeptoes, pumps?).

Of utter importance are also the outfits (and footwear) to shine in (neatly arranged for every day to avoid confusion due to alarming consumption of champagne). The fake lashes I plan to glue perfectly, the glittery manicure to impress with, that sparkling party dress. I never manage to actually sport any of the above because I always end up dancing wildly with the kids, still in my PJ’s, to “What the Fox says”, have a fish to fillet or a duck to unbone for the festive meal (there goes the nail polish), and who cares about the perfect blow out, or shiny dress when you can cuddle with the family in front of the fire anyway.

But yeah. December is all about that glitter (wish list) and the gold: reality. As in gratitude, modesty, and happiness. And that MUST HAVE Chanel purse of course (see above).
Have a happy end of the year everyone!

"Wake up, wake up" my nephew squeals, "Santa has already been in the house!" Drowsily I open one eye, only to be almost blinded by my sparkling heels which are already waiting to shine for the big night. Right! It's Christmas today, and the kids must have discovered the tree the adults had decorated (a dear tradition which we celebrate on the night of the 23rd). The house is already buzzing like a beehive. Mom is fumbling in the kitchen (rattling pots and dinner is already smelling delicious), lovely sis (already in festive clothes and haha! can you believe it: heels!) has decorated everything with glitter, cookies and biscuits (there goes my tight outfit).

Before everything will go quiet (aka everybody waiting for the bell to ring so we can storm into the living room) the kids will be taken outside for a Xmas walk, my brother in law will pop champagne, the grandparents will arrange the presents, and BF will shake his head with a mild smile at this bunch of crazy (and very excited) Austrians. But hello! It's Christmas Eve, it's family (read all hugs and kisses) and am loving everything, even tradition of croaking Christmas songs together.

I hope you'll all be enjoying the celebrations as well, being kind for one another, and never forgetting the most perfect gift: a happy smile (OK, the odd heel counts too.)

Merry Christmas everyone!

And on day seven God invented…

God is smart. When he created Eva, he must have sensed immediately that something was not 100% harmonious. Surprise, he designed her to be indecisive, emotional and already gave her the gift to crave forbidden goods. (I just say apple…)

“What is it, what is it… some tiny accessoire maybe?” He must have thought. Brainwave! So he invented shopping.

Maybe that’s why me and my lovely working friend Johanna thought we might just walk a little (straight to the biggest shopping mall) to “browse a bit”. We had a rough week anyway and thought it could do no harm to spoil our eyes|ourselfs. (God invented that too, it’s not our fault!)

And - Oh. My. God, (no pun intended :-) there were so many beautiful things! D.Y.I.N.G.! I can get such an adrenalin kick out of this! Probably I have been running around like a headless chicken, (stupid grin on the face, eyes all glowing: a bad sign for my bank account…..) begging Johanna to calm me down and hold me back, or at least tell me that the things I chose where not suiting me at all……..

Oh she is so cool: she didn’t.

And here I am… Hands full of bags, high on endorphines, utterly happy: my tiredness is completely gone, (this is the therapy I was looking for!!!) so is the idea to just hide tonight under a blanket. I’m so excited!

God is a genius.
