Christmas 2008

It's that time again when everything in the world seems alright. A time when we fell all warm inside even if it's 30 degrees outside. This is the second Christmas since my father passed, but the first Christmas where I feel good. Even though daddy is not around in body I can feel him in spirit.

My house was filled to the gills with family and friends this year - the biggest ever! We were all having so much fun opening gifts, chatting with each other and drinking eggnog spiked with Brandy.

Would you believe that my mother invited Drew to come over on Christmas? WTF! She is totally rushing into this and I do not like it one bit. I wish he would go the fuck away. I even thought of committing deviant acts to try to remove him from my life, but that is not who I am. Even thought of confronting his children and telling them what is going on with their daddy and my mom. He has not told them yet "because it's too soon." No shit Sherlock! It's too F'ing soon!

Even though Drew was around I was able to ignore his ass and pay attention to the children, my family and friends, and of course my booze. It turned out to be pretty good.
