I haven't really told anyone how much the trip to Tennessee means to me, it really makes my Christmas.
It always seems to snow duirng our trip, so at least once a year I can see some snow and hear Christmas music at the same time...........lol Eveybody around you is smiling and happy........how can you be sad duirng this time.
I have lost loved ones at Christmas Time...my brother, Gary, died in a car wreck when he was 21 the morning after Christmas Day. I refuse to think that Gary would want me to be sad and let that affect my attitude toward Christmas. I do miss his smile and sense of humor. His death really changed our family for a long time, but it has been better lately. Mom's gone, it just doesn't seem like 3 yrs have gone by. Dad is 84 yrs old and still sharp as a tack.
Brad (MPSIIIB) has had trouble sleeping one night this week, he did not go to sleep Friday night until 5 a.m. so he has been a little slow, he got to go to a Christmas Party Saturday afternoon, got to see Santa. Lots of music and laughter...........
We wrapped all of our presents today and got them under the tree.........thats better than past years.
We have been cleaning out some closets and drawers in the kitchen.......little by little.
2nd week of December 2010
