Christmas is for family
And how is family fairing around here this blessed holiday season?
1. One of my cousins is so depressed about how shitty her marriage and life are that she can't/won't get out of bed.
2. Another cousin's feud with his cousin (not mine) has caused a huge fight that included a little church-going granny referring to first cousin's girlfriend as a fucking bitch. This was right before the granny tried to plow over the fucking bitch girlfriend. So, there's a portion of my family that will be alone tomorrow, instead of spending it with the family they're with every year.
3. Another portion of the family will be bailing early from the festivities tomorrow for a football game. Oh, but I'm not allowed to talk about how hurt and disappointed this makes me and other members of the family, lest I cause anyone to feel some guilt.
4. My in-laws haven't done a single goddamn thing for me to make fun of. Not one. Time's a-wastin', People.
You wanna see the one thing that's made this holiday bearable? Go here. Type Clara1104 for the session ID.
I got to read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" to my baby for the first time tonight, after watching her open her first Christmas presents, including handmade Raggedy Ann & Andy dolls from her great-grandma. That's what it's all about, and that's all I need. Seeing my girl hug those dolls heals a lot of hurt.

Doubt I could handle any extended family for Christmas. Luckily they live very far away and I rarely have to deal with them.
And many a year I've been guilty of ditching my family for sporting events. Not that I felt guilty.
Yep, that look on the kid's face makes all the other crap go away. That's about all that keeps me sane some days.
I peep the web for blogs just like this one.
Airtight blog. Your site was off the chain and I will
return!
Check out the blog site with my military cash advance in it!
