sorry...

I have not posted in quite a while, but then again, nobody else has either!

On Halloween, I broke my foot! But before I went to the ER, I did not think it was hurt that bad, so I walked on it for three hours trick or treating with my kids. At the end of that time, when I got in my car to drive home, I knew I had seriously hurt my food. I could not tolerate the weight of the ice pack, and had to crawl to get to the bathroom.

I then called my husband. Come home! He did, and I almost fainted twice when I was trying to get down the stairs to the car. Funniest thing... At the ER, those docs said I broke my foot, but on the outside but when I went to the orthopedic doc, he said that was an old break; I did not know I broke it before. Apparently that time, I was able to tolerate that pain. This was so much worse. It was on the inside of my foot.

Better yet, I was going to Florida with the kids. Only days later. But it went fine and I got in through security much quicker utilizing the wheelchair!!

Anyway, foot is already healed!

This week, my youngest had stomach flu. Throwing up, more and more and more. Two days off of school and she was finally getting better when, you know what followed... My other daughter was throwing up last night. Yuck! Am hoping I will dodge this bullet.

Now the holidays are upon us. This is the first time in my entire life that I recall Hannukah beginning on Christmas Day.

I know that the holiday season can be the most difficult time of year for so many people who lost a loved one and I will make sure to say a special prayer on that day.

Feel free to post your thoughts on that day, to share holiday memories of a loved one who is no longer here to share the day with you. I feel that it is so important to keep those wonderful memories alive.
