memories 2009
December 31st, 2009
I come to you this year in a much better place in many ways than where I was last year. Living alone is awesome. Sure it gets lonely and weird sometimes, but there is no mess except any that I make, I can have lots and lots of “space”, and guess what….no dog howling this year! And I am even going to a social gathering with people instead of staying home alone and crying. Definite plus. All of them.
The one thing I wish is that I could be closer to my family. I struggle with that all the time, especially since my mom is suffering. I know that when I am home for the holidays it seems to take both of their minds off of their troubles for a little bit. That’s the one thing I know for sure I can do…help distract.
So, without further ado….
