Summary:
A nice little interaction between Aldiara and Chayla, and then Aldiara and Rohannon. Very much appreciated.
I have also given a gift, although my recip has kudosed, they have not commented. However, someone else has commented with praise, so that's hopeful?
I'm always worried to be one of those stories that are right on the verge of acceptable. Not so bad that it's going to get knocked back, but not something that they really want. Although that just sometimes is the way it happens.
My Christmas Day was great, first down at the beach near the cousins' house in the south of Sydney, and then with the cousins at their house all day. There was plenty of food, a cute dog, and a brief period when my body and brain simply shut down. I ended up having a nap in one of the front rooms of the house: I desperately needed it to go through the rest of the afternoon which was also great. We didn't get home until past 9pm. A few interesting conversations - they are very conservative and we (the sistren and I) are...not quite so much.
Boxing Day was also great, first with the family feast (and the cute nephlets), then at a church friend's birthday party, where people ate, did bible trivia (someone received a book for Christmas), and finally watched the Dr. Who Christmas Special. It's been so long since I watched a Dr. Who episode! Maybe as much as a decade? I last watched the show during Matt Smith's Doctor - Twelve. And we're now at...Fifteen?
Anyway, after the last week of socialising and doing all the things, I am all people'd out. They were lovely, delightful people, and I was so happy to be able to spend time with them, but I really really need to hunker down and recharge my social battery.
Therefore tomorrow is going to be a quiet and unassuming day during which I will do absolutely nothing except make sure that nobody and nothing at our house cooks in the heatwave that is expected across the city...
I hope your holiday season was what you needed it to be for you and your loved ones. *hugs*

Aldiara and Chayla have a little heart-to-heart before Rohannon and Aldiara talk of the future.
