Holiday Stress For A Super Woman
Posted on Wednesday, November 19, 2008 at 2:55 pmCategory: Stress Management
Apparently, my mom tells me, that everyone the Christmas sadness one time or two in their life.For me, I always thought that that’s impossible.I love Christmas. It is the holiday that I look forward to the most. they are correct really. the Christmas blues have hit me. Christmas stress have officially arrived. I can’t even bring myself to hang the crystal white garland.
I don’t know what’s gotten into me. I am wiped out recently. I was supposed to get gifts for everyone this week but I just can’t seem to find the right kind of cheer I need.It’s my personal Christmas shopping principle to have “the right kind of cheer” whenever you shop because it will reflect a great deal with the gifts you choose. To make matters worse, Jim just told me that their boss liked the dinner party we gave a few months ago so much that they “sort of” invited themselves again tonight.It must have slipped my husbands mind to tell me again yesterday.
So aside from the gifts I still have to buy and the Christmas stress I have to get out of, I have to prepare a dinner party that will top the one I gave before. I need to switch into my Superwoman mode right now. Nothing’s happening. I’m just too tired. With my luck I’m going to come down with a cold.That would be hard on the children. They’re really expecting my usual upbeat self during Christmas season. I wouldn’t want to hamper their festive mood.
Ugh. I truly don’t feel very good.Excuse me…. WHAT!? My Christmas stress is officially over.
I just found out that Jim and I are having a baby! Bring on the party! I guess the flocked garland might get hung this year.
