As I sit here wondering why I'm just not in the Christmas spirit this year I've been reflecting on this past week. 4 people I knew died last week. All were quite different; they were different ages and died for different reasons. The common thread was that all 4 died without any notice. In other words, no one really expected it. One died in a grocery store, one died in his office, one died in the hospital and the last died at home.
My Mom passed away 2 years ago yesterday. Kelly and I visited her in Sutter Cem. and left some Christmas flowers. It was a beautiful day.
This isn't a upbeat blog but I think it's a big part of what I'm feeling. Endings are never easy. Sometimes we just have to work through them. I don't know why it's harder during the holiday season but for some reason it is.

It's really weird how things work out . A lot of the time its not fair and we don't usually understand why it happens or we are just not ready to say goodbye! It always is harder during the holidays! You have so many memories....
Life is so precious and we take things for granted! I know I do!
Call your grandkids..They will cheer you up! :)
Love ya Margo!
