The snow just keeps coming, I am sending out 20-30 items daily (not to mention all the E-Mail, Feedback and Posting New Auctions), and last night my Grandfather died. It was expected, but we really didn't think it would happen so fast..I guess nobody can really be prepared. On top of all this, I have teen-agers...Lord give me the strength to get through this horrible Holiday Season!

kyms....If I wrote one of those Year in Review letters for my family, it would be a disaster!...This year we "lost" my uncle (a devistating loss on it's own, but also leaves my 85 yr old mother alone, which is a major concern of our family, as she is quite despressed), my husband lost his second job (a project that we put 5 years of our lives into), & I have a 16 year old boy who hit almost rock bottom, who is now in twice weekly therapy.....BUT somehow, someway, by the grace of God I continue to find the strength to make it....&....YOU WILL TOO!....Just keep repeating, I think I can, I think I can, I think I can....&...when you really think you just can't, find something/anything that you can focus on as a bright point (if your shipping 20-30 items per day, then sales are good, so there's a ray of hope for ya!) and draw your strength from it!...
My sympathies on your loss....&....my strength to you to make it through & perhaps to even enjoy some of this holiday season!
