Well the day we have waited(or most if us) for is here and I hope you are all safe and in good health. I am interested to know if there are any changes between this Christmas and the last one:.
* The change could be physiological ,as you have lost weight or unfortunately gained
* Mental ,the year has given you a new perspective,
* It could be material ,you now have a house and car ,
* It could be financial ,you now have more or less money .
* It could be new job
* New relationship or a break up of an old one
Irrespective of the type of change ,we are interested in hearing about and I hope the day continues to be a prosperous one for you

Well this Christmas is much better for me in many different reasons. I will listen them. As much as the economic is bad I still can give thanks.
2007 December
Depression
Loser Relationship
No Relationship with God
2008 December
Self Esteem has rebuild
No relationship (I am very happy)
I have rebuild my relationship with God
So for me I would saw that I am glad for 2008 because I was able to overcome things that I thought was impossible. I am now looking towards 2009 with a positiveness.

Don't give up on love. Ronny the only love I want is God love. Here is my blog site. Go there and you will understand a little about me. I have written man off unless there is a miracle which I know God will perform but until it comes I will abstain. Then I know God will send the right one.

Hey Ronny
I guess I spent this Christmas in a new apartment with a slight change of attitude and a few minor changes in life. Got gifts that I liked better than last year lol
But the most prominent thing is that I had to go to work at 7 am next day,that is today and that's where I am now :(

Each year, Christmas is a bit different. This year, because of the weather, several traditional events were canceled.
Financially it was a better year for us - my husband got a better job that paid more and has benefits.

This year and last year's Christmas are almost the same but I can say that I am happier this year compared to last year. I am a more matured and happy individual because many things have changed in my life and gave it a big impact. I proved that happiness cannot be bought by money. I am glad to realize that. Merry Christmas!

The christmas we had was different to last years not so much for financial my husband has a good job and we don't to so bad.My Mum is sadly no longer with us and Dad came on his own for christmas and it was a bit subdued although he was very brave ,managed to get his own christmas presents.He has a good appetite which is a good thing and had a good dinner and pudding.His taxi was ordered for eight thirty which I thought was a bit early,but he is seventy eight and a bit tired after such a long day.my son came with his partner and four kids so that was nice,we kept it cheerful for my son and my grandchildren ,kids are wonderful so full of fun and my little grandson who is seven ate so many sweets at our place on christmas eve,he was ill,but had recovered enough for another session on christmas day bless him,he is so cute.So it was different ,things change and you have to adjust to fit in.

Last years Christmas had a lot of angst. Neither of my cousins was really acting properly. This year the one that came acted properly and the other one didn't come so that really helped everything. Similarities are that I am at my parents house and missing my bathroom alot. The one at my parent's house isn't big enough for my wheelchair to go in.
