I wasn’t thinking straight when I wrote about stress back in May. I wasted that word.
There is NO stress like Christmas stress–too much to do in too little time and on top of everything else.
I woke up this morning at 4:15 am and could NOT go back to sleep. I tried for an hour and then got up and started doing all the things I’d been lying there thinking about. And now, my brain is mush.
I checked a lot off my list today, did yoga, and had a visual migraine. Onward.
Ho ho ho.

Ho ho ho indeed. Here’s to rest for both of us tonight! xoxoxo
Lindsey, hope you are getting some rest. I know you will have a merry Christmas with your wonderful family. xo
Yeah, I agree! I have to help 6 people at the group home ready for Christmas. Buying gifts, holiday parties and coordinating with their families and day programs to make sure all gifts are bought and everyone’s wishes are met. It is exhausting!
Mary, it’s good to hear from you. I hope you’re surviving and that you will have some time for yourself during the holidays. A very Merry Christmas to you!
yes, they say its about giving blah blah blah. yes thats true. But there is so much stress that also comes with it. Yes seeing family is nice but why is this holiday making my hair fall out!
runswithsloths, I know, there’s got to be a way enjoy family without all this stress. And welcome to catching days. I hope you’ll be back.
agreed….had my first migraine in five years this past week!!! At least the internet helps with gift buying now though!!!
I hear you, Chris–there’s got to be a better way.
