In honor of my 5000th post today, I thought I'd try to post a positive thread!
This has been such a difficult year, I've been looking forward to Christmas for months, thinking "By Christmas a lot of this bad stuff will be behind us."
My husband has been gone all of November, on another continent doing a dangerous job - I'm SO glad he's safely home!
My sister, who is fighting for her life, has also been looking forward to the holidays - she keeps saying she will be doing considerably better "by Christmas."
My long exhausting trips to Texas are over for this year - shouldn't be any more funerals there and no more difficult surgeries for loved ones - at least not this year (I hope). No more leaving behind my husband and 11-year-old for emergency trips to Texas... no more this year anyway.
And in the holidays we have the new year... and all the hope that next year will be better!
Is anybody else really looking forward to the holidays this year? Let the festivities begin!
