Another One Bites the Dust!

Another one down! Still standing! Gotta say I had my doubts about this one. Christmas that is! When I was little I loved Christmas...don't get me wrong, I still love Christmas but it's taken on a different tone since growing up. I used to look forward to all the decorations, all the gifts, the baking, Christmas morning, Christmas crackers at dinner...Christmas lights. The difference? One, I didn't have to work to enjoy all those things when I was little. I didn't do the baking, I didn't hang the lights or put up the tree, I didn't have to lug all the decorations up from the basement, I didn't have to make dinner...now Christmas seems to be a whole lot of work! Add to that family - you thought the Young and the Restless was drama...you haven't seen drama until you've seen my family at Christmas! Good God! This was an interesting year. Summing it all up, Bruce's dad drove to my parents' for dinner so that Bruce and I could partake in some libations! A little rye and coke here, some red win there - you get the picture!!! And that's how we survived the Big Christmas of 2009! Hoping your Christmas was just as merry!
