Christmas Countdown - 2013

[Seawaters]

I think you hit the nail on the head, CAH.

You know, we suffer the blues so much because Christmas people are just very sentimental types. We cherish family so much and Christmas is the only time of the year that most people are off work. I know when I get with family during Christmas and Thanksgiving we "talk" about getting together more often through the year but it just don't happen! I hate that but everyone has a busy schedule and we just cannot seem to get off work at the same time. I see my parents and grandchildren every single day but my daughter is a teacher and I chat with her all the time but really don't get a lot of time to hang out with her. With the rest of the family, it's usually just visiting on Thanksgiving and Christmas only.

Sorry for rambling but us sentimental people just don't want to let go of Christmas!!!

I actually feel okay since joining these forums but I understand what you all are going through! I been there before! I feel just a little blah but I'm okay.

I hope you (and everyone else) feel better soon!!!

Right back attcha, LB.

Hello everyone

HAPPY NEW YEAR too...

 

[Seawaters]

Good luck with the interviews, Xmas.

Good morning,


I am here all by my lonesome, I cleaned the kitchen after I dropped the boys off, I am missing them and my wife a lot today, I had another meltdown while cleaning. But, I got a phone call from a company and I have an interview tomorrow. I have had 3 phone calls already this morning from companies looking to give me an interview. I just posted my resume online Sunday night, and all of this attention. Still not from the company I am hoping for, so I have to prep for my first interview in over 12 years. Back to work on Friday for me, just trying to enjoy the last few days.

Have a great day!

Woke up to a chilly morning here in northern California. It is a sunshiny day with blue skies and no breeze. I was able to eat a little last night, but not a lot. I think it is time for another vitamin infusion. That's how tired I feel. I go for an MRI tomorrow for a bone density scan. Bring on the Xanex!!! I hate those machines!

I'm doing the same thing!

Yesterday I gatherd all Christmas decor into one spot. I hope to get the ornaments off the trees this week. I'm labeling & organizing bins this year, so I'm taking my time. DH was still listening to Christmas music last night- Mr. Scrooge really does have the spirit this year & I am glad! I took down Christmas decor @ work today.

First day of work for 2013. Busy as all get-out. I'm looking forward to 3:00, when I can turn the answering service on!

The kids and I are sitting on EA's floor watching a DVD (she got a tv for Christmas). She wanted to have a slumber party, so we're laying here with comfy clothes, blankets, and pillows!

You could start a new tradition of watching Christmas movies ever 25th of each month!

I think I'm going to borrow your idea! I was just talking to my wife the other day about how I was disappointed I didn't get a chance to watch A Christmas Story this season. We picked up the Blu-Ray at Sam's for pretty cheap. Maybe I'll pull it out January 25th to start a monthly tradition, counting down to Christmas 2013. Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm praying for you with your MRI, and hoping you get feeling better soon!

Just finished out the season with a DVD we got for Christmas of a Christmas night broadcast of Hollywood Palace in 1965. Hosted by Bing Crosby, with the cast of Hogan's Heroes as guests. Werner Klemperer and John Banner (Klink and Schultz) sang "Stille Nacht." With the tree still glowing, it was a wonderful swan song for this season.

Getting up and going to work tomorrow is going to be like jumping into a cold lake by comparison!

Ohhhh MerryCarey, that's great, where did they find such a treasure? I would like to find that one, is that the official tittle that's above?

Good luck on the interview!

And you're far stronger than I am...cleaning while alone! If I find my wife and kids away I eat horribly (pizzas, burgers, things like that...sometimes in the same sitting cheesy) and watch John Wayne movies. I admire your discipline!

Listening to Christmas music on Music Choice while taking the tree down just isn't the same as listening to it while you are putting the tree up.

Back to the grind for me as well...Got a bad case of the PCB's AND a cold that has me feeling even downer and outer...But comfort is what I was seeking, and here is where I searched, and I found it. The torch continues to be carried, the feeling continues to live on and the friendships flourish all year long.

All the best for 2013 my frieinds! They say that you are about as happy as you make up your mind to be...I'v decided to let myself feel down today, with upswings int he coming days...
