Thanksgiving

Is only2.5 weeks away and Chris's birthday is the day before. I haven't bought him a present yet nor do I know what to get him. I was going to get him an Ipod since his died in May but he just uses mine because I hardly ever use it. There's really no point in me getting him one when he's got mine. There's always Christmas if he really wants his own.

The main reason for this post is because I'm a little sad about the holidays this year. It's my 1st time away from home for both holidays. Chris's mom, dad, sister and her boyfriend are coming for Thanksgiving/Chris's birthday so we'll have visitors but MY dad was suppose to come.

He and his girlfriend have free tickets but since they waited so long to look at flights, all the ones they could use the free tickets on are all full. So, on Thursday of last week, I was ecstatic my Dad was coming. Then yesterday, he said they probably won't be coming because of the flights being booked and if they bought tickets, they would cost $3000 for the 2 of them. WHAT?!?!!?

I cried....a lot! I am close to my Dad, not AS close as my Mom but he hasn't been here since we moved and I really want him to see it and us. He'd love it here and I miss him a lot!

He text me today and said he might come alone....I think he really misses me and Chris but I'm not getting my hopes up. I've done that too much in my life with him and I've gotten disappointed A LOT!

I'm crossing my fingers for a miracle. lol There's no love like a love a daughter has for her Daddy!! :-)
