MARZISM OF THE DAY:
"mom, we move so many times i can't remember what our house looks like very well."

as i should be leaving the house for church, i'm sure blogging isn't the best thing to be doing. and all the chaos in my head doesn't seem to be spitting out in the form of words. so i'm not quite sure while i'm sitting in front of the screen typing.
christmas approaches fast. there will be no tree, no decorations, no presents... well, at least in the abode where we are crashing at the moment. but we'll have christmas. just someplace else. we'll visit the strip on christmas eve as we did a few years ago. we'll be together. and i'm trying to remind myself that is what's important. although, i think i approach a nervous breakdown every other day.
soon we will have a place to call our own. not a house i mean. just a place. a place that means something to us and a place that is special to the 7 of us.
i did have a great birthday celebration with some absolutely fabulous friends. some that i hold very dear. and even though i wasn't crazy about getting older, my doc is still crazy about me and i'm grateful.
howz that for some random spew on a sunday morning....

do over
i guess i don't hate christmas in and of itself. i should restate. i hate christmas shopping, christmas lists, christmas presents, christmas in stores before halloween, christmas traditions that have no purpose, christmas candy, christmas stress...
thanksgiving came and went in the blink of an eye as it always seems to do. but this year i didn't bake a bird. i didn't spend hours running around the kitchen trying to make sure there was something to eat when people arrived. it was pretty sad. it was mucho fun to see so much family that we hadn't seen in such a long time. but i sure missed having the party at my house. it has become our tradition.
last night we met up with friends to tour the holiday lights at temple square. and man was it COLD!! (not according to everyone, just me, of course) i can't remember the last time i braved the cold for something. there's something different about christmas this year for me. as i walked through temple square looking at all the different nativities, hearing the music, seeing the lights...i wasn't dreading dec 25 as i usually do. it was definitely a comforting feeling.
