So why do I feel so sad?

I am a Christmas crazy.

Really, I am.

I love it. Love love it. I can not wait to go to the Christmas Tree Farm with Love Bug this weekend. I’ve just put together this year’s YouTube Christmas play list. And I love all of the tunes.

So why do I feel so sad?

What I don’t love is how empty they make me feel. I have a lovely little family, but Christmas is also so much about having a special someone to share it with.

I miss that SO much. And not just having someone to share Christmas with, but to share the everyday with too. A grown up (well, at least as grown up as me – ha ha) who has my back and loves me for just being me.

So Santa, or Universe, if you’re reading … I’d really really like this to be my last Christmas as a single girl.

Seriously.

  1. 😦 Christmas time is a great time to meet someone. Just sayin’.

    Oh you made me cry. I understand what it is like, and though Peanut filled my mommy heart, the grown up heart wished for more. There are no secrets to the match game other than finding contentment with your life and proudly going out into the universe as a whole human. That attraction causes others to be drawn to you. Make sure to be with grown up friends too this holiday season. The universe has wonderful things in store for you (I can tell), but it is in her time, not yours, and that is not always easy. Virtual Hug!!!!

    1. Thanks for the hug – I needed it! And it’s nice to hear from someone who totally understands. I am trying my best to be the most whole, best version of me I can be. And I know that will be enough for the right person. I just wish he’d hurry up! x

        When I was not looking, my current spouse showed up out of nowhere. That was 13 years ago when Peanut was 5. Good things are worth waiting for. (Though I am not very good at waiting.)

    Sending you a big hug!!! I read your blog everyday and it’s rare to hear you sound a little down. I hope you’re feeling a better today.
    This will be my 5th *childless* Christmas and it breaks my heart – Hubby and I want a tribe of our own so badly.

    1. Thanks B, I can use all the hugs coming my way right now! That’s one of the reasons this blog is entitled bumpy road – because it is. I am seriously considering renaming it bumpy toddler at the moment though. Tomorrow is one of my more real posts about the realities of life with a toddler. Not that I’d change it for anything in the world. I hope Santa (and the Universe – if it’s listening!) are kind to you and that you have lovely news to share soon. x

        Nawww, very kind of you. My infertility blog (http://stalkingastork.blogspot.com.au/) helps me release the tension and anxiety most days.
        I hope this is the last Christmas you spend alone and your ‘someone special’ finds you and your family soon xx

      2. I started reading it last night. It’s great/frustrating/sad all at the same time. I have everything crossed and I’ll keep reading! x

    Christmas can be a hard time for many people. Sorry you are feeling down.
