Would you if you could?

If you could make a choice for someone, knowing that it would make them angry with you, but knowing that it would honestly be the best thing for them in the long run, would you?

Knowing that at this point, it really doesn't matter, because I am not ABLE to make that choice for anyone else. Still though, knowing that choices that I am certain are going to be more hurtful for said person are being made currently, just makes it harder to sit back and let it all unfold!

When Chet and I got married, we weren't ever going to have kids, for various reason. First and foremost being that we were both way more selfish than someone with kids is suppose to be. I think looking back now, that I am still just as selfish in a way because the choices I would make would be to ease MY pain as much as someone elses.

So in order to keep from going crazy and having the parental hurt that goes along with having kids, I have decided I am just going to skip it! Not have any! That would be the best idea all the way around.

(Heavy sigh!) Too bad it is too late to change things now. Then again, I am not sure that even knowing what was coming, I would have changed it. Just reminds me that I wasn't going to do this in the first place!

Geeze!

Another Christmas....

Well, that's it! Another Christmas has come and gone.
I can say that this one was a little better in some ways and a little worse in other ways for all of us.
Megan was back home with us this year. So the fact that we were all together for Christmas once again was nice! :) The reason she was back home, is a not so happy reason!.
I actually had a surprise gift for Chet, that he knew nothing about :) but because he didn't have time to shop, I didn't have anything to open from him. (I did get things, just not things I knew nothing about) So good for me, not good for him, even though I didn't care. I got my car and that is really all I wanted! (even though it is still in the shop)
The kids went all out for each other, a thing I use to wonder if they would ever even get along, let alone want to shop for gifts for each other! Miracles really do happen! Even in MY house!
The Ice thing in the front yard was looking really cool and getting really big, but now it is getting warm and melting really fast!
I am off work from my  job, which means I am on the road with Chet. I use to be a help to him when he was out working and I went. Now I am just a traveling companion. They have changed so many things with the way he has to work, that if I try to help I am in the way more than I am helping (unless we are installing a machine. Which doesn't happen too much). So good that I get to be with him, but bad that I sit like a bump...Still, I would much rather sit like a bump to be with him than be home moving and doing things alone! My favorite place to be is where he is!
All in all, a very good Christmas! I love my family!
