Christmas is hard this year having just lost my brother a few weeks ago.
Harder on my mom of course. She wasn't sure if she was going to put up a tree or not. My son went over there yesterday and got it out for her and put it up...without the decorations on it. Thought we would let her decide. Called her this morning...she is puttin on the decorations now  .There will be a voice that is not there Christmas morning....a present that is not given.....a place at the Christmas breakfast table that is empty....The one that ALWAYS wore the santa hat not there........A smile that is missed....A beautiful spirit that is not seen first hand but that is felt. Life goes on.

On Sunday we got out the decorations and went to pick out a tree to be flocked. My Amy has wanted a flocked tree for several years now, but my Mom wouldn't have one in her house....so we went to pick up the tree last night; flocked and so very beautiful.
Sunday was...a mixed bag of Mommy Dearest and poor pitiful me. We got out all the Christmas decorations, but there is nowhere to put most of the stuff! Same stuff, different house, no more Mom....sigh. Thank God I have a family that loves me...LOL I have begun baking..yumbo, but to tell you the truth it is hard to be jolly, it is going to be 78 degees by the end of this week!! Ho ho ho .gif "Say What?")

I have not put up Christmas decorations for a few years now. I think maybe it is time. I love the Christmas Season. The music, the smells of the tree and homemade Christmas treats; the feel of crisp cold air on my ear lobes and face.

I am so sorry. I did not know that your brother passed away. My father passed away this Spring and my maternal grandmother a couple of months ago. It is going to be a tough Christmas. My sister will not be in town this year, so it will just be me and mom. We have decided to change things up and she will come stay here at my house Xmas eve and then we will both go to my gf's for Christmas in the morning. This way we will be doing nothing like we typically do every year. I don't want to see his empty place at the breakfast table on Christmas morning, and I don't want to notice the lack of ever present video camera in my face. I think this will help. You really might want to change some things up. She does not want a tree and this is ok. It sounds like you guys made a good decision in putting up the tree, so that your mom had the option to decorate. Hang in there. Know you can PM me if you want to talk.

Will be doing the cutting down the Xmas tree/decorating this weekend with the gf and her son to put up at her house.
 I tend to never decorate my house.Has always been a family tradition to go pick out your own tree and cut it down (at a Xmas tree farm). This is something I have carried on into my own life as an adult.
