If I sound elated to you about Christmas being over, you're right. Normally I'm a huge Christmas pusher...I love the smells, cards, gifts, trees and lights and decorations, pictures, music, cookies and turkeys and hams...I make homemade dog treats and give out, and the dogs and cats wear Christmas bandanas. I buy cute Christmas pajamas and outfits for the kiddies, and the house is full of the wonderful smells of Christmas baking and candles.
Not this year. This year it's been a giant pain in the hiney...the dogs knocked the tree over, the cats knocked the tree over, the legs broke on the artificial tree, the tree started shedding more than a real tree, the dogs broke ornaments, the cats chased ornaments all over the house and wadded up & snagged the tree skirt...and the lights refused to work 50% of the time. By the time Christmas rolled around, we had a lightless, decoration-less tree that leaned to one side.
So I think this is my first ever real venting post for this blog? I won't make a habit of it.
PS..maybe I'll post pictures of the Christmas cards that I made and didn't send out? LOL

Sounds like you need a hug!! It's so disappointing when our family isn't how we want them to be.
Gosh Kim, hate to hear that your family let you down. Savor the fact that your kids are still young and that they love you no matter what. It won't be long and they too will grow up, become busy and preoccupied with their own lives and that's when the real disappointment will come. Guess who else had a piss poor holiday! Cheer up and count your blessings.
