Filed Under daily life on December 18, 2007

Is it just me or has the first half of December just flew by in a blur? I have been so busy getting everything together for Christmas, dealing with family issues, and settling stuff about next semester for school. I haven’t even mailed my Christmas cards because of this which makes me feel horrible! So if you are supposed to get a card from me, I swear I’m sending them tomorrow and please don’t hate me! I’m going through so much crap right now, crap that I don’t even want to go there on right now. I just need … a break. A break from drama and a break from bullshit.

That’s all I really have to say on that matter. I think Christmas is just a really depressing time for me because it reminds me of my grandma. I loved my grandma so much and I miss her each and every day but more so around Christmas. Tomorrow is the death anniversary of my uncle so my aunt and my mom are going to put flowers on his grave along with my grandma’s and grandpa’s. I don’t know if I can go see their graves. It still hurts too much. I try so hard to be happy for her because I know she’d want me to celebrate Christmas no matter what and be happy but it’s so hard doing all the traditional things we used to do together without her being here. I miss you, grandma.

With that said, I’m headed out. I’m dead tired. Today was filled with getting my hair dyed and cut along with trudging through the mall for Christmas gifts and then to Toys R Us as well. So yes, my feet hurt, my whole body hurts, and I’m dead tired. So later gator!

I hope your problems will be fix soon…
Merry Christmas and A happy new Year!

This site is amazing.
I love the color of the layout.

I hope you have a more cheerful time this holiday. I get really depressed myself too.. I miss my family & I never have enough money.. it sucks! I’m trying though to be positive!

You have a really beautiful site here. I’m sure to be back!

Christmas wasn’t always good time for my family either. We had a few issues at one time. I hope you get everything organized and things get better for you. Get some rest .

Thanks for your vote, by the way.

yah i have so much school work to do, and its all so hard so i cant just do it and hand it in, i have to ask about it and ughh its just stressful

Yep, I know what you mean about time flying by, even though you have to deal with family stuff, etc, etc. That’s been the case for me also. LOL, and I just sent my Christmas cards out today… LOL…

Anyways, wow, *hugs*, sorry to hear you missing your grandmother… =(

The beginning of December does fly by… but for me, it’s because of exam week. I wish that I had more time to get ready for Christmas, though.

I know what you mean…I can’t believe it’s already the 21st. It doesn’t feel very Christmas-y in Corpus (where I’m going to school) because it’s 70 degrees and sunny.

[despair] I understand completely.. But I am glad that it’s finally winter break. I’m sorry about your grandma as well. It must be terrible.. and I totally understand how you feel at the moment. But just remember at what you have now and I hope you feel at least a little better.

I lost both my grandma’s on the same day, so xmas is a sad day on both sides of my family. There’s always a rock in the family that holds and brings everyone together, and once that one person is gone, everything dies slowly. It’s very sad.

I’m sorry you still miss your grandma so much hon. *hugs* I know how you feel, because my nanna died not long before Christmas 6 years ago, and I still miss her tons too. That’s nice that you’re going to put some flowers on her and your granddad and uncle’s graves…I think that’s really sweet, even if it does make you sad. I’m sorry you’re going through so much crap in your life at the moment too…that sucks hon. If you need to vent, just send me an e-mail. *hugs* Anyway, take care, and I’ll see you around.

*HUGS* hon. I’m sorry you’re missing your grandma and that makes xmas sad for you. You’ll eventually not feel pain, but death is such a hard thing to get “over” *HUGS* though. Did you get my card yet?

I agree. It seems like everything is going by so fast ;-;

Merry Christmas, Kate!

Merry Christmas Kate! Try not to think about all the burdening problems on this very day. *hugs*

December flew by in a whirl. I don’t remember most of it. I spent my time getting ready for Christmas, too.

December is a depressing month for a lot of people I think. It’s probably because this is the time of year where we are spending more time with family and thinking about loved ones that we’ve lost.

I need a break from drama too. Seriously.

No, I know what you mean - December really did go like such a blur, haha, Christmas came just so soon. At least you wrote Christmas cards though - I was too lazy to write any, never mind post them :p
Hope you had a good Christmas

Hope your holiday went well!!!

I hope you had a great Christmas! ^_^

2008 is only a few days away and I just wanted to wish you a wonderful New Year! ;D

Awww, I’m sure you’re grandma wouldn’t want you to be sad this Christmas. She’d want you to be happy & remember her with fond memory. Be strong & think about your happy times together…

i understand how it is to have to go through all the crowds & check-out lines during Christmas! despite the ache-y feet, you survived so you ought to congratulate yourself!

Christmas has been weird and painful this year, I think for a lot of people, especially with the tragic circumstances the last two years, people without homes to go back to, who lost a lot of loved ones, etc. It almost makes me glad I don’t celebrate Christmas.

I hope you got through it with at least some measure of happiness, as a great, geeky man once said, “If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do.”, right?

Christmas is always difficult if you have recently lost a loved one. My own grandma died two days before Christmas, and that first Christmas without her was agonising. We still managed to make a good day of it. She had left us presents before she died, so her spirit was very much there with us when we celebrated the season together as a family. You just have to try and remember the great things you did with your grandma at this time of year.

I hope that regardless, you still had a good Christmas. I wish you a splendid 2008, too! Sorry to have not visited in a while - what a crappy blog buddy I am! *lol* I promise to visit and comment more often in future.

Don’t worry. Someday, hopefully soon, being reminded of your grandmother at Christmas might make the holidays better, rather than worse. I’ve lost some very special people over the years — Grandma included — and now, thinking about them comforts me, and makes me smile. I wish the same for you — Happy New Year.

Hope this Christmas managed to bring you some cheer despite all the sad circumstances. Sounds like you could really you a pick-me-up. =)

By the way…your link is finally up. Sorry it took me so long!

Hope you had a lovely christmas. Sorry to hear that your gran died at this time of year, I can only imagine how hard it must be.

Have a great new year

Happy New Year!! I agree, December did seem to fly by way too fast, well so did the whole year, but I was definitely very busy throughout December & seemed like I barely got everything done. I’m sorry that you have gone through the painfulness of losing loved ones. I fortunately haven’t seen that many. I hope you still had a great Christmas & I hope this new 2008 year starts out well for you. Take care!

I find Christmas a depressing time too. And december always flies by due to exams or me having to study for exams. Losing the people you love is always hard and I’m sorry for you that you had to go through that. I lost my father about seven years ago, but it still hurts. So I kind of know what you’re going through. Bless you and have a happy new year.

Hm I wanted to exchange links with you but the form appears not to work: required email field is not filled in, it says, although I did fill in my emailadress. Anyway, would you care to exchange links with me? I have your link up already (http://www.x.elvenmysteries.com/zwinkyness/links-out) .
