[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 107015, member: 2211"] Hey Witz, I'm sorry everything is so bad right now. For what it's worth, I only got about 10% of the bonus I got last year. And stupidly, I was counting on it more than ever. Well, at least I can honestly say it was a big surprise. But now, we're really tightening the belt. The odd thing is, it doesn't seem like I did any less work or put in any less effort...hmmm. Bah humbug! Create traditions that suit you and H - create spiritual ones, fun ones, goofy ones. Go with it. Spend Christmas Eve with cherished friends. Plan something special but simple. H and I are alone every other Christmas and we typically make a big dinner the night before so we can hit an afternoon matinee on Christmas Day. Then we come home and eat and chill. Matinee Movies on Christmas day has become our tradition. Even the girls like it and beg us to go when they are home for Christmas! Do you have dogs? Maybe take them for a hike after Christmas breakfast. I think it's important for you and H to appreciate the holiday season in a way that makes you happy and brings you peace. You need to appreciate yourself. Don't wait on others to come through for you. You're worthy of love and tenderness and peace, happiness and joy, aren't you? Sending lots of hugs~ ps: And the points Star made were very true - a lot of realizations going on with L and M. You should be proud of that! [/QUOTE]
