what a nice thread! I don't get in the forums much anymore like I did awhile back, but i just wanted to comment and say that reading this touched me. I am one of the unfortunate ones this year, I lost 1/2 my income 3 months ago.. then lost my main job last week. I have 3 kids ... my oldest is on her own and understands that money is tight. the 17 yr. old understands as well. the youngest doesn't quite get it cuz he moved to his dads by his choice 3 months ago. I have managed to come up with a few things for them for Christmas, and I'm gonna do my best to smile through this and get through it. Its very hard to go from being somewhat comfortable and going to a struggle. But.. I'm not a weak person and I know that God wouldn't give mr more than I can handle. (all though i feel very tested this past year). So to everyone else in my situation this year... God Bless you and make the best of just being with your kids and your family. That is what Christmas is all about.
Nearly loosing some very precious photographs! If you delete a picture on a computer it will always be on the hardrive. Even if the hardrive takes a dump they will always be there.

My thoughts go out to all those souls who are somewhat effected by this season of good will and merryment.
Best of luck to everyone, and if you believe in a god may he always be with you.
