Friday, December 23, 2005 The Best & Worst Christmas Memory You Have I know that this is pretty much a purely political blog, but since it is Christmas, I though I'd put a "personal only" kind of post and I hope you will share your responses with me. This is taken directly from my friend Gary the Canadian at WithinSight. Here was my response to his question: What is your best and worst Christmas memory? "Best: The first Christmas my husband and I spent together as a married couple. We only had enough money to buy the tree. We had zero ornaments to put on it and no money to buy any. My sisters, mom, and best friend all went out separately and bought us strings of lights-- but NO ornaments. Not a single one of them bought us any ornaments! How that happened is beyond me, but it was the brightest and most beautiful tree. It was so bright (from the almost 1500) lights it had on it that it hurt your eyes to stare at it, and made the corner of the room at least 20 degrees warmer. Man oh man, how we loved that tree. Worst: The Christmas after we suffered a miscarriage. Share your best/worst Christmas memories with me. |
