Hey Daisy
I'm ready for that Christmas Camp Comfort too! It would be awesome to have some joy in my heart at Christmas. I guess holidays are often a reminder of hurtful events and or relationships from our past. I think the way to lighten things up is to do a few things new and different than before. Like have good friends over or go to their place for more of the day than being with family, or take a day trip somewhere - with friend(s) not family. One year, I think it was the Thanksgiving after my Dad died, we went out of town for Thanksgiving and ate out. That was something new. It didn't make for a great new memory, but I think that's because I was still morning the loss.
There's got to be a way to make this time of year more enjoyable! So that leads me back to Camp Comfort. I think a "girls trip" might be just what the doctor ordered. I'm up for a cruise somewhere exciting...
....There's got to be a way.....
