I am not a religious person. I know the reason for the season and all that, but well, its never been about that for us. Christmas for us is about family and being together. I used to love buying gifts for my family members and friends. It bothers me that I cannot do that this year. I know that my friends and family understand and all. But I always took great joy in seeing their faces when they opened their gifts!
I know it should not be about that. But that is where a lot of the joy came from. Of course, GETTING is great too. But I liked the giving part best.
I have a pretty awesome family and I just miss those days of all being together at my Aunty Nancy's house.
I saw some guy on tv the other day berating some woman who wrote in to say that she could not afford to get her kids presents this year. The guy made some rather unsavory comments about this woman and it made me feel awful. We are going to be able to get M a few small things, but that is it. She will still be spoiled, as our friend J went all out crazy and got her a ton of stuff lol.
Thanks J.
I sure hope that next year is better for us financially.
I can say that I have a wish list... it is the same as last year. I want a Wii. And a Wii Fit.
I will be old and gray by the time I actually can afford one, but that is ok.
I have my family. Mom, M, T, and my extended family and friends. I have the BEST people in my life. So it is all good. All I want is for them to have a wonderful holiday, to stay safe and healthy, and to have much happiness...
Merry Merry!
