The air is cold and we are facing the holiday season. I love holidays. I love the whole month of December. I love all the lights and the stores full of people and the music. But it is also a time to reflect on how blessed our family is and to turn our thoughts to the families and individuals who see this time of year and feel hollow and alone. I feel so happy to have healthy children growing strong. I have a loving and kind husband who puts his family before everything. As a divorce lawyer, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate that part of my life. Every year, I plan to do something beyond my safe world and traditions and reach out. Every year I fail to do so. I wonder if i can manage to do more than Salvation Army Stockings and Angel Trees this year.
I always heard you can tell what the politicians will do by following the money in their campaign contributions. Last night, Biden said that all you have to do is look at someone's budget to see their priorities. I agree. But i think time is also an indicator. If we follow our money and our calendars, I think we get a snapshot of how we are living our priorities. I would like to get mine more in line with my heart.
This weekend, Ihelp my mother move things after her ex hsuabnd picks up his last funiture and my son has his last soccer game. Plus, I get to go to the theater with my husband. So far, so good. Of course, to be honnest, i do hope to fit a manicure in too.
