spaceprincess18 So I'm following the rules: biggrin I may get a new, better paying job soon. That would be great. scream ARG I'm really beginning to hate this time of year. Everyone always expects me to be so freaking happy. I've always been one of those people who got kind of depressed in the winter. My family celebrates it's own bastardised version of Christmas, and normally I can get over it in time to enjoy it. Two years ago, my step-sister died on December 23rd. We never took the time to mourn. Had to keep up the happy faces for the kids! Never had a funeral, or a wake or even a time to come to terms and say goodbye. My step-dad refuses to deal with it, so instead he bottles up his greif and becomes a complete jerk this time of year. No, I am not happy damn you, I am mourning. Leave me alone and I'll be happy with you later.
You know, the funeral, if done right, could have been a very happy occasion and a good experience for the children. I laugh during funerals, dont know what I mean? You soon will.
I understand why some people are sad. They miss the physical connection. I do that with animals, I miss the time I could spend just having them near me and not interested in anyone else.
Maybe you should light a candle or have a special song play in memory of your sister. I would personally play her favorite song, but that is because I do not like candles. Maybe ask you family to have a moment of silence for all the loved ones that shall be missed, although they will be there celebrating, but not in the physical.

I understand the idea of a funeral done right. My mom has made me swear that when we hold our ceremony for her we have laughter to go with our tears.
I don't understand why it has affected me the way it has. I was never close with her, we hardly ever got along and I always resented that she got special treatment from my step-dad. I still miss her, though and she'd probably be royally pissed off that we never had a ceremony because of how much harder it has made things on everyone. I have no idea how to even approach my family about it, everyone is still so prickly.
