Feeling a bit Bah Humbug



I think I'll hide out in here today and keep my Humbugs to myself!

I'm having some unpleasant childhood holiday memories today. It sucks but I just can't shake it.
Chris try as he may just doesn't understand, he grew up an only child in an extremely wealthy family and his parents are still living so he just doesn't get it. Then I feel guilty for being so ungreatful as I know so many have much less. It's an endless cycle and very unlike me to wallow in self pity. :(
So I'm sorry if I skip the holidays posts today. Hopefully tomorrow won't suck so bad.

  1. Andrea I am sending you a HUGE hug!!!

    Although we don't have similar experiences, just know that I am here for you any time that you need an ear. I tend to get blue during the holidays too, but you and the other ladies of the NB have kept the blues away.

    So THANK YOU!
    And I hope you feel better soon.

  6. *Sigh*...I totally hear you.
    I started a post earlier in the day that is very similar to yours.

    Bad memories always propel me into Circular Thinking. Sometimes I don't realize that my thinking process is faulty, and I fall into depression. For the times I do recognize my Circular Thinking, I have found a way to "jump out" of that circle. It's with humor. For some reason, the skit by Abbott and Costello- "Who's On First?" reminds me of Circular Thinking gone nuts. It probably has a lot to do with the analogy of being back to "square one", right back where you started from...or as in the case of the skit- third base.

    I'm not sure if this is relevant to what you are going through today or not. In any case, the skit is totally hilarious and is so worth taking a look at.

    The last time I tried to reply to someone's blog with link, it got wiped out. That said, I think I'll go ahead, finish my own post and embed the yt skit in my blog.

    Peace be with you, Andrea.

  7. Oh I hope you feel better soon lovely. I can't know exactly how you feel since you and I have been through different things, but I do know what it's like to be sad around the holidays, and other times that remind me of family and the issues I've had. I was super sad going to bed last night, because I was dwelling on my past experiences. I hope you know that we all enjoy knowing you and want you to be happy! Tomorrow will be better! =)

  9. Thank You all for your hugs and kind words! I'm feeling a little better today! I've never really like the holidays but for some reason this year missing my oldest baby (haven't seen her in over 2 years) and being extremly broke just flooded in a lot of childhood memories of being poor and feeling very alone.

    I love You all! Hugs and smooches!

  10. Oh honey, I totally understand! I think we are in the same position, my holiday memories are really shitty...and my husband had this almost-perfect childhood.

    I hope that the past will let us go one day.

    But I love you!!! *hugs*

  11. So sorry your feeling the crap part of the holidays. I had a really quiet holiday. Just me and my girlfriend. Her Mom usually comes over but snow and ice packed around the car on one side. Her Mom is 96 so it's not a good idea to have her walk on black ice. I haven't talked to my brother in 6 months. I left messages and he still hasn't called back. Not even on Christmas. (((Hugs & kisses to you))).
