It is hard to lose something or someone you love, especially at the holidays. Hope that you are able to take some quiet time for yourself and reflect during this period. Thanks so much for your lovely comments. We are surviving and all-in-all not doing too bad. Looking forward however to some down time so not really blogging much, but will be back soon. Hope you have a lovely holiday, however you celebrate and a very great start into 2008!Fourier Analysthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09689357373595434853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-810163108481683709.post-37003895349075185062007-12-23T01:27:00.000-05:002007-12-23T01:27:00.000-05:00December has always been a mixture of heartbreak a...December has always been a mixture of heartbreak and happiness for me. My mother passed away 9 years ago in early December and it seems like the most trivial sad stories have more of a toll on me in the weeks prior to Christmas. <BR/><BR/>The last week is almost always filled with joy, however.Grimmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05618338903910867948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-810163108481683709.post-59678098610585060582007-12-22T18:36:00.000-05:002007-12-22T18:36:00.000-05:00yes, it's all about people! couldn't agree more.
