Guest guest Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Hi Everyone, I wanted to wish you all Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas and Happy whatever you celebrate. I am really proud of myself this year as I have truly been able to put my past in the past to such a degree that I am really looking forward to Christmas with my family...my family as in kids and husband and some friends from church who are coming over. I don't know what the change has been for me. The weather has been very wintery and it truly feels like December here. I grew up in Florida, so I am enjoying having an actual season change for Christmas. I have that back burner sadness when it comes to not having parents and I have my moments, but you know, I've made up my mind that I'm not going to let it affect me to an extreme and I'm going to be thankful for the family I have worked so hard to achieve and enjoy the excitement of the kids. Mine are growing up and I think this may be the last " Santa " year I have because they are starting to ask questions! LOL My therapist told me today she was proud of how I was handling things and that boost from her truly does help as well. She went through a timeline from her clinical perspective and told me how much I have grown. This is my third Christmas with the same therapist...I've stuck it out and have grown a lot. So. I hope you all can find some enjoyment, however you choose to celebrate this year. I'm going to relax with no work or college for 2 weeks!!!! Thank you all for being so supportive this year. I truly have appreciated your care and support! I'm ready for 2011 to be the year I am going to move forward and not backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
