Hi, Carol:

Just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you. Sorry to hear re: your having to be alone on Christmas. You sound like such a strong person. I think there are so many expectations re: holidays sometimes. But I don't expect as much now that I'm past 50. I usually have some of my worse physical days toward end of ea. month so that includes T.giving & Christmas.I wish I could get that "bubbly" feeling back that I vaguely remember having.

Christmas is supposed to be the celebration of the birth of Christ. But the real meaning seems to get obliterated along the way.

I haven't done much shopping.
Shopped on overstock.com (which I found out about from you as I recall) for few items. Overstock really has some nice jewelry.Bought some clothes for my husband and new blouse for me on sale few days ago at nearby chain.

Had made it to several practices for chuch cantata, but when Sunday arrived to do it, I wasn't feeling well.Kinda disappointed, but relieved also.

I'll say a prayer for you, Carol, about managing alone. I feel alone so much of the time, but then I try to remember that God is with me.

Take care.

Your fibro friend,

Jean
