Yesterday I put up my little tree and decorated it with my box of heirloom ornaments ( some of these go back to my first Christmas 55years ago) I was crying as I did this. I miss my family so much.
I also have clinical depression. You sound so sad. :cry: Now I am sad too. I miss my son at holidays too but he and my daughter in law will be down from Ga. this year. I bet someone will suprise you too. I am not that fond of xmas because it is so commercial. Not like when I was young. Just sad. I would love to see a picture of your little tree. I love heirloom things and I like to heirloom sew too. grammiepamie
