Happy freakin holidays-NOT
Here we are,a week before christmas eve,and I truly wish I had been one of those people who had decided to raise thier kids without all the fuss.No Santa Claus,no trimmings.Maybe a nice dinner,and a gift or two.

This holiday is beginning to look very bleak,this year,and it really has me down.Ihaven't even tested the tree lights,yet,much less decorated it.I haven't made a single batch of cookies,or candy.

Why? Because it seems so damned pointless.we had to rely on others again this year.Usually,we have a little bit to buy a few things with,but not this year.Our rent is still unpaid for December,and so is our phone bill.Guess what the next paycheck is going for?I'm so sick of being so damn poor.Just once,I wish I could look forward to this,instead of trying to hope,and wish that someone can help us out.

Add to that,the stress of all this is doing nothing but making me hurt.I wake up in the morning,wondering why I HAVE to wake up in the morning.If I could sleep through all this,I would.Just wake me up after the New Year.

Re: Happy freakin holidays-NOT
I found this wish list on a very interesting blog page.It pretty much sums up how I feel.

* I wish those in interacial relationships did not have to endure family gossip and animosity.

* I wish I could switch the salaries of professional ball players with those of factory workers and elementary school teachers. That way, these people would be truly compensated for the work they do, rather than being grossly overpaid or grossly underpaid.

* I wish we'd stop calling Curt Schilling a hero, and save that honor for real heroes like Margaret Hassan and Deitrich Bonhoeffer.

* I wish overweight people were not made fun of.

* I wish Americans were more afraid of drunk drivers, lung cancer, gun accidents and domestic violence than they are of terrorism. The chances of getting run off the road by an SUV with a Bush/Cheney sticker are much greater than getting popped by Osama bin Laden.

* I wish Christians in the United States cared more about promoting mercy than demanding that city hall be covered in Christmas-themed lawn junk.

* I wish those who order wars were required to fight on the front lines.

* I wish the American definition of moral values included abstaining from flag-worship, treating the homeless with dignity, and reacting with compassion to victims of AIDS.

* I wish pet rats lived longer than two or three years.

* I wish Christmas was a time to remember Christ as a grown man that spoke of mercy, not a silent infant incapable of pissing off sanctimonious religious leaders.

* I wish Christians cared as much about the born as the unborn.

* I wish our desire to care for the planet and all the people living on it was stronger than our desire to have the biggest, most bad-ass motor vehicle. I wish people who drive Hummers would rethink their decision.

* I wish this list didn't have to be so long.
