Unhappy Holidays Acknowledged
When to refrain from Christmas cheer16 total reviews
Comment from BethShelby
This is sad. I'm sure this wouldn't have been a happy holiday. Poor Susan, living with a heroin addict wouldn't be an easy life either no matter how much you love someone. I hope Susan moves on to better things. Your Christmas rang true for her.

A shame it's so hard to keep from insipid spewing. Thanks for stopping by. Cheers. LIZ
Comment from royowen
Such a tragedy for these two precious children, I immediately thought of my grands after reading. Prior to actually meeting God personally, I was a gambling, alcoholic, nicotine addicted dickhead, when my kids were still 4 and six months, I stopped all addictions shortly afterwards, that was 37 years ago, it had a huge affect on my marriage, fatherhood and now, my grandchildren, addiction can be generational, bless you Liz.

Comment from Iza Deleanu
sometimes we are locked in grief, and the people around us, react strangely, I think you sis the right thing:"Moral of the story:
At times like these, ho-ho-ho ain't the way to go (else you'll get the big heave-ho). " Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful night.

Elizabeth,
Wait! I think I have to read this again. Ok...I'm Back. I like your sense of
humor here. Larry was an addict and Susan was pregnant when he died
and remembered your "This Christmas sure sucks for you" card whick did not get chucked or even worse...the Heave-Ho.
I think you need an adjustment here in this line:
"Larry's <
You are funny,
Anna

Your life provides a fund of little anecdotes. I can't decide whether this is because you live a life that is more interesting/vibrant than the rest of us, or whether you are merely more observant than we are.

Bless you for your compassionate heart! Yes, those holidays really are the pits when going through deep grieving like that. So they must be Michael's neighbors? Thanks for sharing and reminding us to be sensitive to what others are going through when sending required holiday correspondence.
