. . .has "A Christmas Story" Ralphie - complete with BB gun, glasses (unbroken) and leg lamp. I really, really want it. I really, really, won't get it. But I am happy it exists.

Because I lost my mom in September, I'm dreading everything about the holidays this year. If it were up to me, I wouldn't put up a tree or decorations or anything. However, my teen and tween are all gungho and can't wait for Christmas, so I will suck it up and do it all .. the decorations, the baking, etc. I really, really don't want to though.
I'm sorry. The holidays are pretty rotten when you've just lost someone. My grandfather died on Dec. 10, and my mother was the only person in the entire family who wanted to do the whole Christmas thing. We all wanted to be together--but none of the tree/big meal/presents thing.
