I have next week off!

[Mermaid02]

Boy do I need a vacation. I fell absolutely exhausted. The last couple of years I have taken off the week before Christmas and found it very helpful in getting ready for the holiday- but this year my kids have appointment after appointment. I need to take up yoga or something to help me relax.

Anyone else stressed right out at everything that needs to get done???

I'm doing pretty well this year. I have also adopted a more zen attitude about life, and have started saying "no" to more requests.

I bet you will have more free time than you think next week, and it will all turn out well.

Good luck, and Happy Holidays!

PS why aren't the men in our lives running around this time of year like chickens with their heads cut off like we are?

I know what you mean! We're having a big office party at our house on Saturday night, and I have to clean. (The food is being brought in). Two days ago, my DH tells me that I have to take the car to the dealer that day, since the carwash partially ripped off the windshield wipers. I get that done, so now I can clean the house, right? This morning my DS has a sore throat, red spots on the roof of his mouth, big swollen nodules to either side of his uvula, etc. We're going to the doc at 9:30, but first we have to drop cookies off at his high school for his class...and the roads outside look icy! I know it'll all get done, but it sure feels like alot of unexpected stuff is happening lately. Who ever thought I'd be looking forward to being left alone so that I could focus on dusting and vacuuming!
