Tis the Season… thank goodness its over
The two weeks leading up to Christmas were the most hectic days I’ve had in a long time. Not only did I have to work long hours to finish everything at work before the holiday, but our office was also being carpeted over the holidays and we had to clean out our office as if we were moving. As if I didn’t have enough to do already!
And although I started my Christmas shopping early this year, well earlier than I normally do, I still found myself picking up last minute gifts on Christmas Eve. I bought Christmas cards; but I apologize to all my family and friends, because I was just too busy to get them mailed out. And anyone who has ever received a gift from me knows that I like to wrap pretty packages. But pretty packages take time and so I spent many hours gift-wrapping. I also baked desserts for two Christmas dinners and made Christmas fudge.
Are you tired yet? I know I am. I’ve spent these days since Christmas relaxing, putting things away and reclaiming my laptop and trying to recapture my writing spirit.
Tis the Season… thank goodness its over! Now if only I had a few weeks off before going back to work. But unfortunately my time off is quickly coming to a close and I’m sure chaos will ensue post haste.

Hard enough having to work hard, but dealing with new carpet fumes on top of that - Yucko!
