Probably one of my favorite Christmas songs of all time. Karen Carpenter. An inspiration.
I can't believe it's Christmas Eve..where did the time go?
For the first time ever, I assembled - by myself - all the presents Santa left and put them under the tree. I threw away the boxes and other "evidence". I did all this from the comfort of my own home that I share only with my children.
Yet, somehow, I feel guilty. I feel like I'm committing a sin doing this without Nathan. But what can I do? My mom would disown me if I welcomed him back so easily after all that he'd done to me, and all the constant manipulation. I'd lose everyone's respect and would only be taking three steps back after leaping two steps forward.
I plan on sleeping in. I have worked 25 hours in only two days. What a busy, crazy, stressful past two days it has been for me. I'm going to enjoy the time away from work over the next two days until it's back to the grind on Thursday. So, I'll wait til my sleepyhead monsters awake me with their shouts of joy upon their discovery of their loot.
A much-needed flexeril and a swig of cough syrup and I'm going to bed. It's about that time. My bed as missed me.
