Tuesday, December 25, 2007 @ 9:23 am But I can live and breathe and see the sun in wintertime. First off, Merry Christmas to all those that celebrate it, happy holidays to those that don't, and a very special happy birthday to... me! Yesterday, my family hosted the annual Christmas party (again) and it seemed like we could barely keep all the presents under the tree. I can't remember a time when the area under the tree was that full--probably some time back in the 90s when we were all prosperous and we didn't have such a crappy economy--but this year completely blew me away, especially considering that our extended family hasn't exactly had the best year financially, what with the death of my grandmother and all the expenses that went along with that. But maybe that's why there were so many presents under the tree this year. Maybe we needed a little something to cheer us up in our first Christmas without our matriarch. It was a strange to be without her in this holiday season. There was a bittersweet atmosphere around the house for sure. You could tell everyone was thinking about it, even in a subconscious capacity, and while we all genuinely had fun in each other's company last night, you could feel that something was missing. Regardless, all the kids were ecstatic with the presents they received. I wish we had toys like that when we were their age. Sometimes we'd get ill-fitting clothes instead and then we'd have to feign happiness. (I was never really good at that.) Without e-mail around, there was no way to mass communicate our Christmas wishlists so rarely were our wishes fulfilled. We had good times though, same as now, and isn't that the real meaning of the holiday season? I'm so glad I have a family I can always return to, no matter where life ultimately will take me, and it will feel like home. 3 Comments. I know! I've been seeing some of the toys out this year and I wish we had stuff like that when I was younger. I definitely remember getting the ill-fitted clothes and attempting to be happy about it. I always {and still do] have a hard time pretending to be happy when I'm not. I know I already wished it to you, but happy birthday again! » LostSoul13 on 2007-12-25 06:21:13 I know how that feels. The past chinese new year feels empty without my grandfather. Merry Christmas, happy birthday and happy boxing day! » Nuttz on 2007-12-25 11:13:05 i wish i got presents too!!! » renaye on 2007-12-26 01:50:59
