Journal Entry for December 27, 2007 Mood
Thursday, December 27, 2007
Another snow day today.  In fact we have 12+ inches on the ground and it is so beautiful.  The daughter and grandkids were supposed to come back today after picking up her older daughter at the airport but since the road are not plowed there is no way they could make it up the mountain.  Maybe tomorrow.  I have been having such a good holiday that I feel guilty when I read about all of the pain that others are suffering.  It's been twenty years since Mark and six years since Brian and this is the first year I felt 100% Christmassy(okay that's my word).  I know that all of the others at this site will get there too but I know it takes alot of time and work.  I seemed to move forward, slide back, mover forward, get stuck move forward etc etc etc.  I don't know if that is normal but then this what I call a normal reaction to an abnormal situation.  I just wish that I could give everyone some magic formula but I never found one.  I just keep trying to encourage and remember how I felt then.

    Thanks, I think it gives us hope. Right now I feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. That I am just destined to go on miserable each day until it is my time to go. You know just go thru the motions of living. But to hear your story it gives some hope as to maybe at some point in time there will be better days. Thanks,Alice

    I am so glad you are doing well. I am doing better today with accepting my moms death. It really comes in waves. I am thrilled to know that one day it wont be as painful. I know this is only my first christmas w/o her. Thanks for being a light to all of us. hugs
