Can you see the disarray of the bathroom? It pretty much represents everything twisting and turning in my mind this very minute. So, today I am focusing on deep breathing because I am so.very.very.behind on everything.
No Christmas cards are even in the works yet.
I have purchased one gift so far. That's right...one gift...yikes.
My house looks like a pair of hurricanes has gone through it, no kidding, the stairs are littered with stuff, remanants of paper snowflakes are scattered throughout the main floor.
I have Thanksgiving leftovers in my refrigerator still...gross.
I need to prepare for a Relief Society Dinner that I'm actually looking forward to hosting.
Family Christmas traditions are waiting to be organized, prepared and executed (like baskets for the Widows in our ward, one of my favorites).
Last night as all 4 girls and the dog piled on top of our bed at 10:30pm they talked of wanting to make homemade gingerbread houses this year. I guess homemade sugar cookies aren't going to cut it.
I could go on and on, but as my dear mother always reminds me..."one day at a time."
So despite the self-imposed stresses of the season, I am taking deep breaths and focusing on the true meaning of the season. And I feel better already!
