[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 108037, member: 1722"] Linda, I didn't notice how much my thinking had truly shifted until I started getting ready for the holidays this year. I've stopped trying to go over the top with gifts for one thing. It's wasteful and shameful, in my humble opinion. I've had Duckie help me sort her unused toys to find good homes. I've donated those things I don't find useful or I love. My life is cluttered enough without adding in extraneous stuff. I'm trying to focus more on the things that matter. My daughter is going to remember making Christmas cookies that she can give to her teachers a lot more than some useless trinket. It's a different mindset. I'm sorry you are so lonely for your mother. I've been missing my father & grandmother a lot this year. I sat and had a good cry the other day. It's okay to let the grief out. {{{Hugs}}}. [/QUOTE]
