Oh man, I hope everyone's holidays were a million zillion times better than mine.
My beloved grandmother passed away on the 28th and I'm just so darn sad.
I feel like I should be posting pictures of Christmas morning and talking about our holiday festivities. But it was pretty somber this year and I just don't have it in me to upload pictures. But I promise Jack had a lovely Christmas and received many wonderful gifts.
My grandmother's funeral was on New Year's Eve, so we didn't really celebrate that night.
Jack and I had spent the last two weeks at my parents' house and we finally came home on Sunday. Somehow it is already Tuesday and I've only left the house once. I know I need to sack up and get back in the real world but I've given myself a pass on not being in fighting form yet. I alway struggle a little after the holidays, not to mention I always need at least a day of doing nothing before I can recover from a big road trip. So combining that with the loss of a loved one means I'm allowed to move a little slowly now, right? And I'm actually being somewhat productive today (Laundry! Picking up! Unpacking!), so it's not all doom and gloom around here.
But I'm still really, really sad.
About Me
- Cora
- Hi. I'm Cora. I live in south Texas. I'm married to the hottest redhead around and we have the cutest child ever. He was born on April 3, 2009 and he is perfect in every way. See also: ADORABLE. I finished grad school in July 2009, but my big plans for that degree are to admire it on a shelf while I stay at home and raise my handsome little boy. I like reading and try to do it as much as possible, though I'll admit the internet steals a lot of my book joy. But reading blogs counts, right? I enjoy iPods, obese cats, Sharpies, Burt's Bee's products, and Johnny Cash. I've changed my name and those of my family and friends in order to protect the innocent, because I'm just that cool and so are secret identities.

Oh Cora, I'm so sorry! Our Christmas wasn't as wonderful as usual after losing my grandma. I miss her soooo much but time has helped ease the pain and I know she's happier where she's at. Praying for you!
