jendp, hi. I was responding to my own posts and just reading different posts on here to help my own sitch. I will say that leaning on God is the right answer. Sometimes he pushes up to act and trust in Him when we don't want to or don't want to listen to Him. I, too, have struggled and still am struggling through the holidays but I try to focus on God and ask Him to help me get through Christmas and New Years plus my W's birthday on 10th of next month.
I guess what I'm trying to say is focus on God and let Him lead you to focusing on you and enjoying this time of year instead of regretting it or letting it get you down. Call up a friend or two or hang with family today and tonight and celebrate the New Year and the new you.
