[QUOTE="Shari, post: 411976, member: 1848"] Try to let go of what things "should" and "should not" be. It makes dealing with the hand you've been dealt that much harder. One year at Christmas, I had myself hellbent on having a "nice family Christmas" like families "should" have. I planned and schemed and put things in place to make it happen. We were going to celebrate several days before Christmas to remove the anticipation factor from it for Wee. Wee went into a tyrade, anyway. Driving him in my deisel was the only thing that stopped the screaming and physical aggression, so I ended up driving almost 350 miles for 6 solid hours without ever getting farther than 30 miles from our home in an attempt to make that fantasy Christmas happen. I gave up on Normal Rockwell. We go for more like Larry the Cable Guy Christmas now. [/QUOTE]
