When she'd been younger, Laura had loved the holiday season. Although she didn't consider herself particularly religious, she'd always enjoyed the family get togethers, the food, the lights, and the celebration that went along with this time of year. She'd loved the whole pack getting together and celebrating.
Things had changed after the fire, though. Now, the time of year just made her sad. It made her realize how very much she'd lost. Nothing really seemed quite as joyous when most of your family was gone.
She'd tried to avoid Christmas in Madison Valley, for the most part. As they got closer and closer it got harder to do, because the decorations, the music, and the network were all geared towards presents and celebration.
She hadn't participated in any of it, but it was hard to avoid it.
Tonight, she was sitting at the bar at Lou's, nursing a beer as she idly watched the football game on the tv. She didn't know if it was a rerun or not, or who was playing or not, but it didn't matter. It had nothing to do with Christmas, and she could deal with that.
