Hard Candy Christmas

that is what this year is gonna be....a hard candy christmas, as dolly would say. it is going to be lonely and depressing. everything is changing. even the family traditions that i thought would never change are changing. the biggest day of the year for our family is christmas eve, and my brother isn't even going to be there for it. things are getting moved around and new people are entering our sacred holiday. not sacred in a religious way cause, let's face, we are NOT a religious family. i mean sacred in a "this is what our family has been doing since before i can remember" kind of way. i know that is what happens when everyone grows up and moves on....but it wasn't supposed to happen to christmas. that was never supposed to change.......

i'll be fine and dandy...lord it's like a hard candy christmas....i'm barely getting through tomorrow....but still i won't let sorrow bring me way down.
