He11111 no! He ain't takin Christmas! (That seems very anti-Christmas spirit.... lemme reword...)

Let there be Peace on Earth, and Let it Begin With Me! (I don't know if it's exactly the same. But I like it.)

Yuppers... I had the same beautiful Christmas vomit emanating from my house, too! Last year was tough. Xh moved out 3 weeks before Christmas. This year is going to be so different. I'm feeling the same as you about the missing less and less. For quite some time I was actually afraid of that. It made me sad to think of the possibility of not missing him or wanting him. Now I'm embracing it. I'm geekin' for it like a crack-addict!

Bring on the Christmas, baby! I'm ready for it! You too! Bring that Shining Christmas spirit! Pom pom Christmas shake (or whatever you cheerleaders do.. cool)

So glad things are work are going so well for you. That makes me very happy! Hit up the Rat Pack Christmas on Pandora and own it, Shining!
