Getting ready for the holidays

As Thanksgiving is approaching... I'm realizing that I am absolutely not ready for it. Adopting a thankful spirit means going through some painful digging inside, and ignoring/glazing over it has been the easiest way out. I realize that the past couple thanksgiving/christmases have been glazed over - my only goal has been to get through them without any emotional scratches... without having painful memories weigh me down... I WILL enjoy my time with my new family.
