Merry Christmas - can it be more stressful?


I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year. I apologize for not posting if you happen to be following, which from some of the email I have received, I know you are.


I haven't been able to post since I had major surgery, with many complications. I just couldn't sit at the computer long enough.


I promised everyone that sent me an email, I would post again, but since that time, I have had to put my dog down. She has been my best friend for 15 years. Not only did I have to make the decision alone, (and I held her through the whole ordeal) I then came home and got a phone call 6 hours later from my husband who gave me so much guilt that I wondered if I did the right thing. Well, I know I did.


Lately, I have had "so called friends" telling me to keep my problems to myself. And some who continue to say they "love me" when it is so obvious they only love me if I can do something for them, or help them in some way.... or keep me on a string.


Well, if any of this is happening to you at this time of year, I say screw them all. Be polite and respectful, because you don't need to stoop to their level. But don't allow yourself to be a rug to these people. That's what I do.


So, for all of you reading this... Have a Very, Merry Christmas and a Happy, and Safe New Year!


And much love to my Sasha..


Until next time....

  1. Happy Christmas!!

    I'm so glad to see you are well enough to post again!

    I must say I know what you are going through with your friends. Lately I have come to realize that most of the people around me are only interested if I seem happy. It's difficult to put on a fake smile and pretend everything is ok, but I've decided that where some people are concerned, this is the best way to deal with it. THANKFULLY Christmas is over and some of the stress of it all is gone with it.

    (by the time the last Christmas function came and went I didn't think I would make it through it, but here we are.)

    I hope you have a wonderful new year!

  2. Hey Stacy!

    Thank you for your comments! It is so good to hear from you! I think my next project will be a site where everyone can just let go of all the frustrations in their life without the fear of negative comments.

    How does that sound?
