For
the first time in a long time I’m ready for it – I think, OK, I hope. It is the middle of the month and the
interior and exterior of our house is decorated. The tree is up and decorated with a
ridiculous amount of ornaments just like my Great Grandma Veary’s tree. Her tree was the most decorated tree I’ve
ever seen – it had so many ornaments on it you couldn’t tell it was fake! Our Christmas cards are done – addressed,
stamped and mailed! Thanks to my husband, most of the gifts are ordered and
being delivered. I’ve even started wrapping the presents. This year I actually feel in control of the
madness and I’m not so stressed. I have
even planned to make cookies with the boys this weekend. Cookies from scratch! I have a sense of calm this year and which
has led to organized holiday fun. It’s a good feeling, a Christmas feeling and
I’m going to roll with it!
Merry Christmas!
