"We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
And the shadows prove the sunshine."
And here starts the winter. I doubt the fear will ever really leave me, but I know that I would rather be here with my family than anywhere else, so I can't leave. The panic is getting better, if I don't think about it. But every time a stupid over-confident driver speeds by me on the interstate in the icy morning, it makes my stomach turn and I feel sick. To all my friends that read this, please...just slow down this winter, always drive carefully...no one should have to go through what I did almost 23 months ago. It's not worth the risk.
Daddy's doing all the driving, that should make it easier too.
It makes me cry happy tears to know that I'll be home for the holidays finally. No driving 5 hours in blizzards to get home on Christmas Eve. No arriving just in time for Thanksgiving dinner. No having my stocking delivered to me in a box on St. Nicholas's feast day. So happy :)
Mandie is coming up to visit this weekend, :) and the weekend after I'm going to spend it with Alex and Lily and go skiing and play around in the fancy resort they live in! I can't wait!
