Merry Christmas to everyone!
My friend Andrea Healton gave me a bear nativity set! I love love love it. She has been a friend for over a decade and I am grateful for her support. I am also grateful for the black bear. I have fond memories of my Grandpa Jones telling me stories of Greasy Bear and his adventures in Yellowstone. I have collected black bears for almost 15 years. I completely love my newest addition!
I spend Christmas with Scott. We had a wonderful dinner of steaks and shrimp. Scott was a master chef and I was the supporting table setter. I am so thankful to have somewhere to spend my holidays.
Scott and I completely spoiled each other. I have enjoyed my days here in the cold Uintah Basin. I am torn. I dont want to go back to my empty apartment and to the cold rain. I am not ready to leave Dr M and the wonderful boss he is! I am ready to be closer to my parents. Although Portland affords me some distance which makes the separation from family easier to deal with. I am scared to get married again. I am afraid of failure. I know how to be single. I dont know why I cannot commit already. I have known Scott for 7 months. I feel I know him very well. He continues to impress me and show me the kind of man he is. I am thankful for the trials we have had and the hardships that have brought us together. He is not comfortable being single and is so patient while I try to work through my fear of failure.
I have hopes of working through it soon. My goal this week has been to set a date for marriage before I leave for Portland. I am closer to picking a day than I was a week ago, but afraid to solidify and commit.

Wowza that's a lofty goal! Good job Mair, you can do it! From what I know (via the blog) I've been very impressed with Mr. Scott. I'm glad he is being patient with you. He should be :) Merry Christmas to you!! And to answer your questions...Sawyer burnt his hand on the humidifier :( poor lil guy! It's healing up nicely tho...just have to keep it wrapped since he's always getting his hands dirty.
Merry Christmas to you! :) I want only happiness for you. I hope that Scott can help you find it. Life will come together for you the way it is suppose to, if you just let it. I know all about needing to let go and let the Lord work in my life. It is a challenge for me everyday.
Yes you did get spoiled! And just to let everyone know Scott had my name for christmas and he picked it out himself and did a great job! Better than me who still needs to mail it!
i love your nativity! so cute and what a sweet friend to give such a thoughtful gift, knowing you love black bears.
I'm excited for you that you are happy! If Scott cares for you he will continue to be patient, i don't think you need to feel rushed into setting a date....you will know when it's right, and if waiting a little is what it takes, then so be it! I'm glad you had such a wonderful Christmas!!! Hope the New Year is just as great!
Mair this is great!! Scott sounds wonderful, and I'm glad he is being patient with you. It's a hard thing to commit to marriage, especially with what you've been thru. I know you'll make the right decision!
