Despite all the struggles my family is going through in this Christmas season, I'm beginning to look past it all and starting to feel a smile spread across my face again. I guess a death of someone you love is something you will never get over; there's always going to be that empty place, if you know what I mean. But like I've said before, my papa doesn't want us to be sad, and even though I still feel like having those random break downs, I guess I just have to do my best to be happy.
Christmas morning was pretty much an awesome morning. I guess that's when I started feeling happy again, and not because of getting to unwrap all of my presents but because I got to see the rest of my family happy again as well. And that's what I've been looking for. All these weeks that many people have completely devoted to Christmas, I've just kind of sat around and watched, I never got excited and really, I didn't do much shopping until Christmas Eve which turned out to be a bust.
Christmas, I got a Harry Potter snuggie, calendar and wii game, and in my opinion, you just can't go wrong with that, if you know what I mean. I mean...Harry Potter's awesome, right?
I got to spend time with my family, and see everyone smiling again. It couldn't have been much better, considering the circumstances.
And now, as I sit here with my Harry Potter snuggie wrapped around my cold body, listening to Bright Eyes and realizing that I have to clean the house, I will bid you all ado.
