December was a tough month for me, as always!
This time it wasn't just the memories of my husband but also dealing with my mother-in-law and with my kids no longer being kids!
First the fun things. I love Christmas so of course go all out to celebrate it!
The beginning of December Mikey, Christopher and I took of for Costco! The problem was the only time we had to go was on a Sunday. It was packed, couldn't move packed! But I got the meat I wanted. Kids asked for roast lamb for their Christmas dinner. I have never seen lamb in the local supermarkets here so it is a real treat! After shopping we went to the malls food court for lunch and had an Indian curry, very nice and different!
We got our tree up with less difficulty than last year, looked nice!

The other thing that has taken up so much time is dealing with my mother-in-law. She wants to return home and I understand that. If I felt she could take care of herself I would support her, but even before the accident she had a hard time taking care of herself, so now I think it is impossible. My biggest worry is her driving. The doctor told her she is not to drive. When she was asked about this acted all innocent, saying that she hadn't heard such a thing! So I told the social worker that I was not happy about her going back if the car was still there! If she has a car she will drive! I have until the end of January to figure out what to do!
New Years was nice and quiet! Just hanging out with the kids, watching too much TV. I caved in and paid for Netflix, so much to watch. I'm happy!
This week we have two birthdays! Christopher turned twenty and Mikey will be 26. I still can't believe they are so grown up!
A few photos to finish with!
