I consider today the start of the holiday season, why? Well because most people leave for there trips and things today, they also start getting all crazy about thanksgiving and Christmas and what there going to buy.
When you work in retail you dread this time of year, but I don’t anymore so it’s starting to get it’s spark back. The one thing that is bad for me personal this time of year is that the anniversary of my father passing falls during this time. It will be 3 years on Monday and it’s still hard. I find myself everyones in a while crying for no reason, it’s not often, but if I see something that reminds me of him it will sometimes happen. I have been told it’s normal. I was only 21 when he died and I don’t think it’s still though my head yet.
Even with all of this sadness there are still some happy things, My nephew just had his first birthday Monday and my sister is due with another girl on the first of December. Life does go on. I think though this is the first Christmas I have gotten into since my dad passed. I’m not fully into it, but I’m trying. I hope by next year to have a little more Christmas spirit.
