Not So Happy Holidays
Dear Christmas,
Please be over. I associate you with bad memories, the most recent of which involves finding out Monday that my short time frame to go from never hearing about my mom's cousin's existence to learning he was alive is already over and has been over since September. We never got to meet face-to-face and my mom will never have a face-to-face reunion now.
But the other times haven't been happy either so excuse me while I go read a book and ignore all the specials.
Sincerely,
Me
