It is ironic that the busy holiday season happens at a time our bodies feel an instinctive need to hibernate. The rain has been steadily falling, it's damp, cold, and it will be dark soon; but holiday parties, family get-togethers, craft fairs, gathering presents, cooking, baking, and card making crowd our to do list.
I haven't started any of it but I am exhausted.
Even though Mike won't be here - I don't feel any extra pressure or holiday depression. I am a little apathetic. There are few holiday activities I would like to participate in. Sitting here at home with the animals sounds like the perfect holiday season. Though, gifts would be nice. I do love a nicely wrapped gift - to give and receive.
While bustling around pre-holiday season I got overwhelmed. Overwhelmed and caught up in all the energy around me. I was visiting, shopping, and arranging my schedule like a puzzle - getting every piece to fit. It was impressive.
However, there was one thing I forgot to consider in the schedule. Me. I see that now. So my goal this week is to make several appointments for me.
i am hoping i am one of those appointments my love....maybe a playdate on sunday is perfect timing!
