So, how many of y'all are ready for the holidays? I am sooo not! Apparently, I live in the land of denial ~ thinking I still have weeks and weeks to prepare. I don't have our tree up. We haven't decorated at all. I've barely begun Christmas shopping. And I really need to get with the program seeing as I have to ship gifts out of state. Ugh! I haven't even started on Christmas cards. And despite having good intentions, I've yet to bake any goodies! :)
Why?!?
I will not stress...I will not stress...I will not stress...I will not stress...
I'm struggling this year too. I actually have almost all my presents, but can't seem to make myself finish up. And I had to force myself to put up a tree!
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Brandee!
Well, you are ahead of me, Andrea! :) I got a few things done today and hope to get more done tomorrow - including shipping to Texas. I asked my kids if they were upset we hadn't decorated yet...they said they feel like it's still weeks away too! Glad I'm not the only one!
DeleteYeah, don't stress. You have plenty of time.:)
ReplyDeleteMe, on the other hand, I don't really believe that holidays are coming. I think I'm getting a divorce from Christmas. We shall see.
Keep me posted, Athina. As for me, well I'm going to keep thinking 'I can only do what I can do.' :)
DeleteI feel ya! Well I don't do Christmas cards because I'm lazy and my friends know I'm lazy like that. As for gifts, I'm lucky coz the ones I want to give some to are with me except for my dad and he just likes money so that takes care of that. Good luck, Brandee and I hope you get to finish your elf duties soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking I may not do Christmas cards this year, Braine. I just don't think I have the time to dedicate to it. Anyway, it'll all work out...it always does. :)
DeleteI feel your pain! My problem is that the season is moving too fast that I haven't gotten into it at all yet. I want to bounce around smiling at all the holiday shit going on, but I'm too grumpy about it all. I have the presents, but a seriously bad attitude. Sheesh. If I don't snap out of it, I'll be throwing gifts at my loved ones' heads. Bring your kindle when you go shopping so the lines don't bother you a bit and take froo froo coffee breaks often. We're here for you, uh virtually, which is no help at all probably.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely not feeling it this year, Robyn! I'm not grumpy (yet) but I just haven't gotten much done. Truly, I feel like I have about 5 more weeks! *haha* I hope you can snap out of your funk...projectile presents are never fun! *haha* The kindle and coffee are good ideas though. You know I'm here for you too - if only virtually! We can always tweet over coffee!
