Well… It’s obvious that Cuban Jon’s been missing in action for some time. Here’s a brief overview of what’s been happening…
Christmas was (and usually is) one of the most stressful and exhausting times for yours truly. This year I thought I’d do something extra special and hand-make little artsy-crafty reindeer out of yarn, plastic and googlie eyes. I remember a tree ornament from my grandmother’s tree just like it. It has a little saying on the back, “Squeeze my cheeks and I’ll give you a kiss!”
I thought it was the cutest thing ever and that all my little sibling and cousins would get a kick out of that… Now keep in mind that Cuban Jon is the oldest of 9 kids AND that his cousins number in the mid-20s. In short (which I am, but not very good at keeping a story) this was going to be a MAJOR undertaking. After working all day, I would stay up all night making little toy reindeer until I passed out from exhaustion (or inebriation from the cocktail I was drinking at the time.)В I determined that each reindeer took me about 30 minutes and I had to make about 35 in total. Thankfully Ivanhoe (Sammy’s hot ass hubbie, see him here) was willing to sit down for a little bit and play reindeer assembly line with me…
In retrospect,В I would have been better off buying everyone iTunes downloads or McDonalds Gift Certificates. UGH… Maybe next year.
