Hey all, Greetings from the North. I have not forgotten you.. I'm just not blogging nearly as much as I could be.. Lots to cover so I shall get on with it.
It's been a rough year for me emotionally.. Having a teenager in the house had brought it's ups and downs.. A dear friend passed away in the summer and now CB (Computer Boy) is having some difficulties. A supposed friend has or had been talking about me to another mutual friend.. I have no idea who that might be.. But I was told that I was "abrasive", meaning what exactly? I tell it how it is? I'm a pretty honest person and I don't take people's crap.... The ones that do know me accept for me all my flaws.. So it's juvenile for people to even talk about someone they are suppose to be friends with. If that was my only flaw I would be damn near perfect!....
Surely my day to day problems are not much to some who may be going through even tougher times.. Our economy is not great, but also not bad here either..
Anyways things are hopefully changing for the better.. I still try to stay optimistic, even when I'm having a crap day.
I still have issues with family but maybe one day that can also be resolved.
Christmas is almost upon us once again and we are nowhere near ready.. We never are.. last minute shoppers and procrastinators.. If I had my way we would start Boxing Day and keep going till the following year.. No tree up nor is there any lights or decorations.. Why, you might ask? Well I have a rough and tumble 4 yr old and he is alway busy getting into mischief..
I also am feeling a bit Scrooge-like at this point.. Not that I don't want to celebrate this time of year, but because of some BS that has cropped up over the last while that has infringed upon my enjoyment of being with family and friends.. I do plan on sending out cards, which I'm behind on.. It's also the anniversary of our Grandmother passing and my dear brother Solipsist hasn't been doing so great this past year,healthwise.. Hope to see him better soon though!
Overall this year hasn't been a good one, but as I said I try to stay optimistic and keep a smile on my face. Here's to hoping for a better,brighter and drama-free 2010!
Thank you to all of you for putting up with my negligent blogging and Wish all of you A Very Happy Christmas and a Great New Year!!!!!
