Blue Christmas



I won't lie to you. This Christmas season, I feel awefully despirited. I have no motivation whatsoever in doing things I normally do during the Holidays. I did not decorate my house, inside and outside. I have not sent anyone any Christmas card, and I have not shopped either, and come to think that Christmas is just around the corner. I attended only our hospital Christmas Party last night, and the rest of the invitations, I declined. The weather is not too cold either, so it's not all about winter blues. I just don't have it anymore, and as a matter of fact, I want this year to go away quickly. Have you ever felt that some years are a lot better than others? I know, I am still blessed, but this year, I just feel emotionally, physically, and financially drained. I think I need a little "Pick Me Up" from my friends. There is no doubt, I have a BLUE CHRISTMAS...

I thank Jeanie (namelessfaceless) who sent me a private email in response to this blog...I know, until now, she has difficulty being visible here at FFF in terms of posts...But, with her permission, I'd like to quote what she wrote:

" awww...Elz....BIG HUGSSSSS -- I feel for you and can kinda relate -- although this year has been a better year for me, the many previous years were forgettable ....

Cheer up, girl....your friends love you and please know I am just an email away

Jeanie

aww c'mon elz, it's not like you at all. where's the playful, all-around girl who has a lot of friends? it may be because your baby is all grown up and living his own life that you feel neglected. find things you love to do and do it. sayang naman yung bonggang car mo if you are not going places. maybe a road trip with a friend will perk you up. my next blog might help. smile and take care.

You know Dan, I envy you...Your way of celebrating Christamas is simple and yet joyful. That's very Hispanic, so family oriented, and close-knit. I am one of those who are not very fortunate to grow up with a "family" and didn't make good whatever "family" I personally had. I guess this is the feeling of emptiness that is overpowering my strength. Have a great one!

Honey, sweetie, no matter how strong I seem to be, I do have my weak days, and this is one of them. Bonggacious car is still a baby in terms of mileage..barely made it to 15K mi. I have highway hypnosis...I couldn't drive more than 3 hours, otherwise, I'll be dead meat on the highways. Thanks, my dear.. Yeah, you are right. I am feeling neglected, and I have to be "adopted" by friends from other states in order for me to have a family. My female best friend is soooo busy with her double jobs and during her days off, she's busy babysitting her grand daughter...Besides, we are extremely opposite in our social lives..

I believe Dan is in CA...I did invite him during our Eye Ball in SFO this past August, but he didn't join us (Personal reasons, perhaps? )

Boots, it's not even about MEN, believe me...They're still around, but not the type who's a lifetime partner material..
I was supposed to travel this Dec. 20-23 back to Sacramento, but my son's first freebie trip for me was not approved, and now, it's too late for me to book it myself. It's now double the original fare price, and it's not practical to buy that ticket if I'll be staying only for 2 1/2 days...

Thanks DAN...There is more advantages being in a close-knit family than the independent ones, although there are also some downside to it...But you're lucky!

There's a great deal of pressure to be happy during this season whenever it's meant to be a celebration of joy and all, but it's understandable why people can feel left out on their own like yourself po and stressed under with the preparation building up to Christmas.

Well all we can do is be here for you.



within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.

Janey, I am sooo appreciative of the long email that you sent me. I am feeling so low, so tired, and lonely...That is why I can't leave FFF...This is the first and the only social network that I can truly relate, and I found quite a few wonderful friends like you here...Thanks a whole lot!
