Holidays
December 27th, 2006This was both one of the most traumatic and one of the most wonderful holidays ever. Though the overall stress level was exceptionally high (because of non-holiday family issues - ask for password), the holiday stress was less than usual.
I have the opportunity to reconnect with some family members that I haven’t really seen in years (one of them over 20 years) and while the circumstances aren’t great, the end result is a good thing.
Solstice/Christmas loot was the best ever, not just for me - heh. But it’s bittersweet when you take the entirety of the circumstances.
I really needed this Christmas to have as little holiday-themed drama as possible, and I think I got that, so for that we are grateful. We’ve also had a bit of what feels like Christmas miracle (or something), so that’s good, too.
But I’m very tired, and I don’t think that’s going to change any time soon.
