Here we are again, December already! Almost one year ago that I met V. Wow, how time flies! Who knew that things would get so twisted up. This has been so difficult, to be apart. The holidays are upon us all and I endeavor to be cheerful. I haven't been able to see him in over two months. I hate how this has to be right now. I had envisioned being together for the holidays, but it is not to be this year. I miss him terribly, but I will have to meander through. I must let him be, so that he can work through his situation and perhaps eventually. . . we shall see. I know that he misses me too. I suppose that will have to be enough for now. So in the meantime, I try to concentrate on sending out Christmas cards (& Chanukah cards, to a couple of my friends), RSVP-ing to holiday parties, and acquisitioning family wish-lists and begin the gift-hunt!!
The gift hunt can be fun for some. I always enjoy shopping for gifts to give to my mom. She is so much fun to watch while she opens her gifts. It's fun anticipating anyone's reactions, but my mom is especially fun. I love to give things I've known that friends and family have wanted. The actual "shopping" part can be arduous. But capturing "the prize" and wrapping it up can be fun. It's the anticipation of their reaction when they open it . . . That's what keeps me trudging through the crowded shops. Although online shopping has become so convenient, that tends to be a preferred method of gift hunting now. I treasure Christmas Eve night and Christmas Day, when I spend time with Loved-ones.
There is one Loved-one I so wish that I could be with this holiday season ("V"). I hope he knows that he is always in my thoughts, and in my heart. Here's to a happier future!!
Enough for now. I have cards to address!
Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, and Happy New Year.
Treasure moments with your Loved ones. Don't take that for granted!!
Be well . . .
