Hi Anita,

This morning I made a point of putting my holiday wreath on my door before leaving for work.  I need to not have what’s going on in my life put my house in gloom during the holidays.  Will they be different this year?  For sure.  I thought of putting up a real tree, but now I’m not so sure.  I bought that artificial tree before bf and it’s my tree.  He helped me, while he was with me, put up the lights and the star on top.  My daughter helped me decorate, and when my son came home for the holiday, there was always one ornament for him to put on the tree.  I’ve always bought a new ornament for both my kids to put on the tree each year.  It’s tradition.

I still have one good cry a day, but I’m taking it one day at a time.  I’m trying to focus on my daughter, not so much on bf.  I need to get her to a good place, and this will in turn help me get to a good place, hopefully.

I hope you enjoyed your walk.  Cloudy here in the Northeast and quite cold.

Katie
