Feeling Quiet
Letter To My Friends
Dear Friends,
As you know, I've had so much going on in my life these past few months that the last thing I wanted to do is celebrate the holidays. On top of that, I've recently had my heart ripped out, yet again, but I am not prepared to discuss that right now. Despite everything, I'm trying to keep my spirits up because I don't want to ruin the holidays for my children, and I know I have plenty to be thankful for.
I know I haven't been myself lately and I haven't been posting regularly or visiting all of the journals as I normally would, or commenting, but that doesn't mean I don't care about you guys. You all mean the world to me, and I want you all to know that I cherish each and every one of you. You've helped me get through so much, and that's something I'll never forget.
I haven't decorated my home for Christmas and really don't have it in me to do so this year, but I'm OK with that and so is my family. My heart knows the true meaning of Christmas, and the reason for the Season and that's enough for me. I will be sending out Christmas cards and would like to do so with my J-Land buddies too. So for those of you that would like to exchange Christmas cards, please email me your address and I'll send you a card. I promise I will not sell your address to tellemarketers, or post it on the internet, LOL. DO NOT leave your address in the comment section. I'll be mailing out the cards to those of you that have already sent me cards.
Huggies, Mandy

Aww, Mandy, I hope you`re feeling better soon. I think we all understand that sometimes life takes over and we can`t always get to our journals. Merry Christmas.

Mandy, I'm so sorry that things just won't let up for you. I will keep you in my prayers. It seems like this year has been awfully rough for many and the Christmas season is just so difficult. I really haven't gotten into it much. Only my tree is up this year. I hope and pray that you can find your way to some peace. Love you, Chris

I'm sorry that someone ripped your heart out..
my thoughts and prayers are with you that everything will get better....I understand...this is the first year we have put up a tree and deco in 2yrs...I had to just make myself this year... This is the first christmas without my favorite aunt who passed away in March....so it's really been tough...but i made myself put up the tree and stuff cause i know she wouldn't want it any other way... Last night i just sat and watched the tree...the lights flickering ..and was thinking about christmas memories of the past with her...as we spent every christmas eve and new years eve night with her...and i just started cryin...i can't help it...it's so hard. Anyways didn't mean to unload on you....but i just want you to know your not alone....we are all here for you!
