For a minute there I had a plan, 2 blog entries a day till
Christmas and I was all caught up, but then we got home late last night and I
fell asleep instead of blogging. Oh
well, what are you going to do? I think
I have said it before, I was better at this when I could blog at work.
So what makes me
merry? What little joy am I holding on
to today? Yesterday was Jay’s birthday.
Yes I know, two of my three Jay’s have December
birthdays. It’s a little odd. So
yesterday people were posting on his facebook about his first birthday in
heaven and having a party up there with the angels.
I can’t, you know? I
mean, I am ok with people having their own beliefs, but the image of Jay tying
one on up in heaven seems pretty incongruous.
Then I opened up instagram and there were pictures of Jay’s
son and step daughter decorating the house with their mom. Just trimming the tree in a normal way,
together, as a family. That made me smile.
Not that they were ignoring their loss or anything like that, but just
that, for a few minutes, or an hour, they had some joy.
*** 2 things. First I
wrote this last night, and thought I had posted it, but it appears I did not. And
secondly, I am not cyber stalking Jay’s family, even though it seems like
it.
