Is it here yet?

Come on Christmas I need a break. For some reason I always, always feel harried and exhausted during the holidays. The best part is that I don't have to worry about cooking dinner. We always go to my sister's house on Christmas Eve for dinner and presents, so that's a big load off my shoulders.

Between shopping for presents, decorating the house and dealing with the school parties I am utterly at my wits end. The holiday spirit sorta ebbs and flows like the lunar tides and there's no telling when it will end. I almost wait with baited breath for New Year's to be done and over with and the bleak start of the year to begin. At least there are no major holidays to have to deal with for awhile and everyone gets time to recuperate.

Meanwhile, I will try my best to keep my spirits up and stay happy for my little ones and loved ones around me. But I truthfully can't wait to start 2011; hopefully with a clean slate and free mind.
