Happy Holidays???

I apoligize in advance, this post is anything but sugar coated. I don't know about any of you, but my life is far from perfect and all I can say is when it rains, it pours! These past couple months have been full of... well let's just say they've been full. What's been going on? Everything from medical issues with Jon, Hobbes getting hit by a car, having Halle (do not get me wrong, she is by far the biggest blessing in my life! I'm just saying that having a baby is a major life changing event) , then Jon lost his job so I ended up going back to work 3 weeks after having Halle, AND to add the icing to the cake, last night as we were driving home someone HIT US. Major snow storm and they lost control of their vehicle and SLAMMED into ours. I have never been that scared, Halle started screaming when it happened, I started bawling. Good thing Jon kept a level head, it was quite the ordeal. Everyone is ok, Halle calmed down after a while. It just scared her really bad. Good thing we have our Peg Perego Carseat. (Thanks again Daddy, Halle was safe because of your gift). It took the paramedics over 1/2 hour to get there and the sheriff wasn't there for another hour after that. Our car is mangled. We're still waiting on insurance info since it was the other persons fault.

I am NOT a complainer (usually) but really.....
It's just a little hard to get into the christmas spirit.

That is all awful...but...your family walked away from a car accident that "mangled" your car unharmed. You are very lucky. Keep your head up as it could always be worse.

You and I have a lot in common. Dave and I had one of those years last year--car accident day after Christmas and all. I KNOW that it sucks from first-hand experience, but I promise that it does get better. I'm just south of you if you need help and don't be afraid to contact me.

WOW! I am SO SORRY, Kaity! If there is ANYTHING we can do, PLEASE let us know. DONT even HESITATE asking us for help. I know how hard it is to have tragic things happen during the holidays, it's not easy. But I am happy to hear that you all are okay and you guys weren't injured!

Is Jon looking for a job? I could keep my eyes and ears open for stuff, if needed.

Love ya.
