Ok, we got through one Holiday, every one full of enough food untill X-Mas? One down, 2 more to go, that includes New Year. Time for this Bear to hybernate, especially New Years Eve, same bull, different day....I wish Santa could just make one wish come true,,,the missing human/humans at the table.

Doing good, keeping busy, and my mind occupied. I find that to be the best medicine for me and my situation.

Staying busy and trying to be creative for our loved ones that are on the inside. It is helping me cope with the holidays.

I'm hanging on. It helped to see my husband the day before Thanksgiving and it was even better that I was able to take his son with me to see him. My husband loved the surprise. He hadn't seen his son in almost 3 months(since the trial).
I know I just saw him 4 days ago but I am just dying for a letter or another visit.CMEO :(

Thanksgiving is just another day to me. The hard part is Christmas. James has never been home for Christmas since our daughter was born. This is her 3rd Christmas and it's hard cause she's starting to realzie daddy is not here. I also wish Santa could bring home our missing loved ones.

Just got back from marriage counseling - awful. I get so mad at myself for crying. Thanksgiving was a joy compared to today, but I will be ok.

Christmas will be hard for me this year. My son just got sentenced to four years. I really don't want to think about the holidays or family gatherings, its really depressing, but I have to for my two other children. Its hard to pretend to be happy with a broken heart on the inside.

I think things keep getting worse, but I'll get by. That's the one wish I think everyone wants mamabear. I wish I could sleep too, sleep all the way until Jason comes home.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
