LB Christmas Party
Every year since I began working at BMO in 2001 there has been a Christmas party at Lisa's house. It is always a good time and this year was no exception.
I love that our group is able to get together year after year. I am grateful.
This year was a little different though. Aside from some of Lisa's amazing food that was not prepared tonight, the candles not lit that would usually set the ambiance and the two hour window for the party that would normally go through all hours of the night. It was different.
I was emotional tonight as I drove to her house. With her stage 4 melanoma diagnosis every visit could be the last.
Tonight I had some important conversations and I feel blessed that I could be there.
There are no words to describe how this really feels.
In all honesty... it sucks.
However, it is Christmas and we were together and I was glad to be there.
