The holidays get to me bad since the storm. We did the family thing and then the family friend thing. Every year we were together. It was a tradition.

For the past two years and now this one. Everyone is so far away from each other and have so much going on trying to get lives back together that again there will not be any get togethers. Yeah we will send the holiday cards and speak on the phone, but it wont be like it was.

Trying to deal with the everday loss of family and friends is hard enough, but when it comes to those holidays, birthdays and special occasions its one of the worst pains of homesickness i've ever felt in my life.
