Members ModKatB Posted November 26, 2018 Members Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 I have a tradition I started with my grandkids several years ago. I always buy them each a different ornament for the tree each Christmas. This year while I was looking for their new ornaments I found one for me and I am going to try my best to remember this every day and especially during the Holidays. It has been almost 10 months and I still have some really bad days where nothing seems to go right and then every now and then I have a good day where things don't hurt so much. I know that I am going to have a very hard time over the next 3 months, December/Christmas, January/His birthday, and February/1 year gone. Billy always told me I was a very strong and stubborn woman so I am going to try and live up to his faith in me, but when I stumble as I know I will do. I am thankful I have this place to come and be able to pour out my fears and have someone say that it is okay and we understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators KayC Posted November 26, 2018 Moderators Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 I love that and would buy one if I knew where to! I have my tree up and George's ornaments on it and his stocking hung...he loved Christmas and each and every holiday and season, so I commemorate him and invite him to join me here while I watch the sappy Hallmark Christmas movies. I know their happily ever after endings don't always tell the whole story, but we all get enough reality, and besides, George's and my life WAS like a Hallmark movie, with happily ever after in it until the day he died, but we'll be together again so the "ending" has not yet born out.

Moderators ModHerc Posted November 29, 2018 Moderators Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 I love it too KatB. One of Christine's sisters had several of these made for the key family and friends last Christmas. I leave it up year round, usually on the inside of the door knob in my room, but it has a special spot on the tree when it is time to decorate.

Moderators KayC Posted November 30, 2018 Moderators Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 I love that, Herc! Kat, I ended up making one for everyone in my group, I printed it out on sticker paper and then put a strip across a yellow foam angel that I die cut and tied a gold cord at the top. It turned out pretty well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ModKatB Posted November 30, 2018 Author Members Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 @KayC Putting that on an angel shape was a good idea and it was sweet of you to do that for your group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
