Thank you, for leaving comments about my previous Post. It made me feel better about life.
I am not sad or upset for myself that Andy may out on some of the festivities. I was speaking out of frustration for him. The aggravation I was feeling was mainly directed toward his coworker, who took off Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and does not have any children.
I am not complaining about him being gone, I know that is a part of his Job and we will work around it. I have been the kid who had wait for mom to get home from the Hospital after a night shift, and I know how to deal with that with my kids. It is called distraction.
I am Blessed by God.

Christmas!
I cannot believe it is December 6, 2007 already. D-day. That is beside the point. Any way I am actually sad about the Season. My husband is not going to be able to go to my family’s Christmas party because he has to work. I don’t think they realize that he will not be able to attend the Christmas Eve Service with the kids, he will not be “Santa”, and we will have to wait until he gets home from work to open gifts. Then he will need to go on to bed, so he won’t see the kids play with their toys. AND his folks are leaving our house right after he goes to sleep so they can drive to FL to see his Brother and his Daughter.
The one person who could cover his job took off for Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. This wouldn’t have bothered me except She is 60yrs old and does not have any kids!!!!
The other thing that’s funny to me is that my family asked me when would be good for us to have the Christmas party (We have had our party after the 25th for as long as I can remember) I told them when would be good for us. Then they seemed to get all upset because the 27th would not be good for anyone else. They asked what would be good for us I said what would be best for us.
All of that said I feel bad that Andy will not get to have much of a Christmas this year. No I am not talking about presents, that is not what Christmas is to our family. It is time together and time spent with extended family, and due to work schedules and lack of planning time is not what we have.
I needed to get that off my chest Thanks for reading.
Please pray for me to keep my heart on what is important this Christmas. Thanks
