It Can't Be Christmas

How can Christmas be coming in four short days when my family is falling apart? Why has my son chosen to stir up a ruckus on top of a tragedy? Why would my oldest son want to drive seventeen hours home to this?

I am emotionally and mentally drained, stretched to the limit. I don't think there is much hope of salvaging this Christmas...  but at least there are cookies.

  1. Cause it's family, there is always going to be someone out there wanting to create drama or to make it about them, but it's family you gotta love them no matter what, even if you don't like them or like what they do very often. And Jim wants to be there cause you are an awesome mother and Uncle James is an awesome father...who wouldn't want to spend time with your awesomeness for the holidays. Enjoy the holidays for what they really stand for and remember somebody in Texas loves you!

  2. I do love them no matter what. That is what makes it so hard. Sadly,he is alienating everyone who love s him. I think it will be a lonely Christmas at my house this year. I already have a sister who isn't coming because it will just be too uncomfortable if he shows up. :(
