SH, please remind me specifically what MR message you want me to look at because it either didn't get through or I didn't find the right one. If you could just quote it here for me, and help me understand, I'd be very grateful. And then we can break out the tea and scones withMiss V! : )


Hi Maybe, I am so sorry that you are in the think of things right now. You seem like a lovely person, and I hope that you also find some joy in this beautiful season. Thanks for your kind words. I am not letting STBXH ruin anything for me. I am digging deep to find the joy and beauty and love and friendship in this season. I just get caught off guard sometimes when I let myself relax into the season. I know it's normal and I just let myself feel whatever comes. I just wasn't prepared that it would be so stealthy when I have been feeling so well otherwise. It's strange.

I'm having a good, if non-productive day today, just puttering around. Music's on again, tending to my critter chores, chatting on the phone with my mom... My wonderful neighbor dropped by with WAY too many lovely Christmas gifts for me, and we had a enjoyable talk. I've missed her and was so glad she stopped by. I really do like it when people are comfortable enough tot just come on over for a chat or tea, or to see what I'm working on.

I need to do A LOT more holiday baking!! I have so many good people that I want to share with.
