Monday

Guess we got one more grace day, both the 'net and the cell phones were to be cut off on the 8th, but both work today. I sure wish we had the money to keep them going. *sigh*

Petunia got all dressed up and went to see The Nutcracker with Mr. DW yesterday afternoon. Afterward, he took her out for ice cream at The Landings and they got to see the giant Christmas tree set up. She had a wonderful time and looked great. (She wore her concert dress as a trial run.)

I believe she has this week and most of next before Winter Holiday break from school. We were going to see my Mom on Xmas Day but mom decided it would be better if they just sent us the gas money to use to buy Petunia a present. As sad as that makes me, I agree.

We were supposed to put the tree up this weekend but we were too depressed to do so. If it wasn't for my daughter, I wouldn't do anything at all, but we're trying to keep a positive view for her. Maybe we'll get it up this week.
