Staying in with the fire going in the fireplace and watching T. V. with David Grey singing This years loving ,can't get no better than this. I have finally addressed some of my Christmas Cards for this year and my creeping Christmas is still creeping. To tell everyone the truth I am not enjoying this Christmas season this year. I don't know what it is I can't actually put my finger on what is wrong, but I feel like the Grinch this year. I just couldn't be bothered. I hope as time goes on I will be in a better mood. I guess it all comes down to it that I am a giving person and don't have much to give this year. I know it doesn't make any difference to people but it put me in a bind since I like to give.
I would like to reflect about the past year since the fire is lit and I feel so cozy. The jewelry business we started this year was a good idea and I think it is going to get bigger as we go along and once we get it on the web I think it will be better than we could imagine. I ended up getting a raise at my job before the first of the year as previously thought. I have filed for my Irish Citizenship. I did fail my driver test, but I have good news on that. I had to get a driver instructor to take some lesson from because I thought to get rid of some bad habits that I have learned in the past... Anyway the driving instructor was the son of one of the nurses I work with, well he is now training to be a driving tester so he will test us. His mother and me(since we both failed) LOL I will wait to sign up in order to see where he will be working as a driver tester. In Ireland you can test in any town that is on the list whether you live in that district or not. My dog that I got a year ago September is a joy to me and become a part of the family. I have become a computer game addict but we want go into that at this time. LOL I found out that I hae a tumor in my ear and am follow up on that, I find as I get older I can't do the things I use to do when I was in my thirties or forties for that matter I don't know if that is a good or bad thing. There is some things I don't want to do that I use to do. I am still grieving over the death of my daughter and will always, but am getting on with my life. I don't want to be the kind of person to let her death just ruin my entire life. I don't know if that is selfish or not, but I have seen people that just can't get pass the grieving stage and get on with their life. Of course I think of Khristy every day but I can't let it get me down. I have to go on and not give up. There is more I am sure I have done this year to reflect on but just can't think of them at this time. Since I am talking about reflections I thought the pic is appropriate me seeing a reflection of me in the mirror. Peter took the pic several years ago I think it was on his first visit to see me in 2001.

This time of year we all look back at whats happened. I think it helps to see how far we have come and how we dealt with things. Sometimes not the best and sometimes we did great lol, I think we never stop learning and growing...I do a christmas letter each yr to put in all my xmas cards..so I don't have to write it out 50 times lol, So it helps me to reflect on what's happened over the past yr.
