Thanks for all the kind comments via the blog and email (Laura). The funk is lifting somewhat. I have to remember that feelings come and go. It's also been a bit unpleasant at work (unusual for my office) so that's been adding to the gloominess. I keep reminding myself that every minute that passes is one minute closer to Luke coming home safe and sound at the end of May/early June.
I sent these to a close family member today (I always like to get her something she wouldn't buy for herself) so she could display them at her Christmas party tonight - it's the only way I will be able to attend! :o(
