My Baby is home for the holidays, the grandson is here, and even through all of that joy, there is a sadness that runs just under the surface. It is going to be fun watching the cats undecorate the tree after the morning passes, and the wife lets her guard down, but I don't like the holidays this year. There are other things that are bringing me down but Ya'll get the point.
Merry Christmas. (that was not sarcasm)

Sorry to hear about your mom Rick V. My mom passed away a couple of Christmas ago. I know the feeling. The only thing that I can tell you is that time will heal some of the grief.
With the economy the way it is my wife asked me is this the worst Christmas the kids will have since we weren't able to give them everything that they were hoping to get. I told her that the worst Christmas for the kids will be the Christmas when one of us is no longer around to celebrate with them.
