Off-Topic Happy Holidays
OP: December 23, 2016, 12:19:00 PM
Wishing everyone the best for the season.

What I'm doing this year to repel those thoughts of Christmas past:  thought blocking my x.  Fiercely thought blocking!  Every Christmas I regress a little and mourn the past.  Not this year.  I'm enjoying the moment even tho as we speak my d is celebrating Christmas with her father at a last minute lunch ::) ...it bothers me that she will probably visit at some point soon with him and ow.  It's not fair that he gets to play good dad and everything's normal and 'these things happen'...that's me being childish--poor excuse for a father he may be but he's all she's got. 

Okay starting now, I'm staying in the moment.  Merry Christmas or Happy whatever holiday you celebrate!

Happy Holidays to you all.

I am the lucky LBS who never associates Christmas with Mr J. New Year's Eve is a slightly different matter, because that was the time for the two of us. Christmas for me is my family. This year, without grandmother, we are going to do things a little differently. But I think we will be ok.

Happy Holidays to all. I've lost almost everyone all of the family I used to spend Christmas with, including my wife, but I'm happy to have gained a new, online family.

I would like to wish everyone a joyful Christmas and say thank you for all the support and laughs.

If you do not celebrate Christmas or if it's an understandably difficult time of the year, I wish you a joyful moment, however small.

I won't be journaling for a few days. I've chosen to give MLC a candy cane and asked it to sit in the corner. The sun is shining, there's sparkling  frost on the ground, my tea is hot, and there's lovely choral music on the radio. It's a lovely moment.

Wishing you all much love and kindness,

With much gratitude,

Emmy  :)

Im grateful for finding all of you. If I didnt my head would still be spinning trying to find a reason for all this. Through reading through everyones experiences it has really helped calm me everytime I come on here, knowing im not alone. Happy holidays to everyone and a happier new year for everyone.

I would like to say happy holidays to everyone, and an even bigger thanks for this site and everyone on it, we may live in different places and have different beliefs but we are all the same in this chaos of MLC.
I for one say good riddance to 2016 and bring on a better 2017 cause I can't see it being any worse.
BLESS YOU ALL.
