For everyone feeling merry and those not-so-merry folks, I wish you a peaceful holiday season with lots of rest and good food. It can be a highly stressful time of year for some, and I feel for you. I take every year in stride, it's a little different each year. With the eldest being home from college, this Christmas is a little more special than last year. Last year, either I was facing depression or just an apathetic lack of spirit because I don’t even think I mustered getting the tree up. I don’t remember. It was a little less festive. But this year, since my daughter is back, I’m all for it. I will miss those we’ve lost, but we’re remembering the children and keeping it positive. There’s been ornament making, baking, cooking, and a stocked fridge of goodies. We’re trying. Most gifts under the tree will be late, but we’ll see what the online elves can do for us before Christmas.
