Numb

So Christmas came and went and I just feel... numb. We went through the motions of Christmas and now it's over and I'm not sure it even really happened. Does anyone else feel like this?

I thought it was Christmastime that was making me extra sad, but now, on the other side of it, I don't feel the sense of relief I was hoping for. If anything I feel more sad for not having enjoyed it fully.

    Yes... I posted yesterday that I felt worse the day after Christmas than I had the day of.  I think it hurts more when I don't have something to preoccupy my thoughts (not that I ever stop thinking about my baby boy).  I'm sorry we're all feeling so crummy these days.  I wish we didn't have to get to know each other under these circumstances.  (hugs)

    I agree completely!  We didn't even have the whole family together this year because of a family fight that happened the day before we buried our little girl (my grandmother felt like we left her out of making funeral arrangements which lead to my uncle calling and cussing out my dad which lead to a huge drama deal).

    We had my parents, bother, mother in law and my hubbys grandfather over.  We tried to keep busy but my sweet girl not being there for her first Christmas was very hard on me! 

    I hope the New Year can bring us all some relief!

    Yes - I could have written this post.  I thought that this Christmas would be better than last year, but I honestly am not sure it was.  I miss Eliott so much, and I don't feel relief by having it over.  (((HUGS)))
