You know, after more than 5 years living here i got used to this thing of not having almost any national holidays. But the 5 of May not being one of them, i just find it really weird... i mean, it's not even like celebrating independence from centuries ago or some random religious stuff, it's the day you were liberated from nazis, the most evil thing ever! Hope they eventually change it to a yearly national holiday 

 

(On the other hand, the May 4th two minutes of silence is actually impressive, really nice tradition)

I entirely agree about 5 May! We have a free Monday for Easter and Pentecost of all things, like anyone really knows what on earth Pentecost is even about

 

I'm fine with having them as free Mondays, but 5 May is much more logical indeed.

 

On the other hand, it feels like every other week Bruna tells me this or that doesn't work in Brazil either because it's the umpteenth holiday or because "people are free on Thursday so nobody will work on Friday just for one day"

As always it's a bit of a puzzle who celebrates Christmas on which days (or not at all) on such a diverse online place as Totallympics, but I'm pretty sure nobody celebrates it on 23 December already. Considering it's Friday and for a large portion of people this is probably the last working day before the holidays, it seems like as good a moment as ever to wish everyone Merry Christmas!

 

Whether you celebrate only 24 December at night, only 25 December, 25 and 26 December or any other random combination...have a good time everyone!

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it.

If you don't then please have a good week anyway...

Christmas tree and decorations prepared and done.

 

Also Baby-Jesus "our Santa" already arrived as you see, sometimes he is too impatient   now on to the dinner preparations

Here the cake for tomorrow morning is in the oven (my dad usually makes one with my sister, but she's working these days, so I helped him a little ), after lunch we'll move on to the final parts of tonight's dinner. There's already a whole bowl of meat (deer) marinating in the fridge since yesterday and the smell coming out of the fridge is super promising  

 

After lunch (just a regular lunch) we'll prepare that and the side dishes and such for tonight  

 

Tomorrow we're at family all day, no idea what the menu will be then. Although afterwards we go eat with my sister and her boyfriend, with one of these sets

 

 

26 December is entirely free for us this year, no appointments/obligations or anything
