They say that everyone has to experience the Christmas blues at least once in their lifetime.I always thought that it was impossible.Christmas is my favorite. It is the holiday that I look forward to the most. they are correct really. the Christmas blues have hit me. I am officially experiencing Christmas stress. I can’t face the idea of holiday garland.

I don’t know what’s gotten into me. I am wiped out recently. I was planning on getting presents for all my list this week, but if I’m not in the right mood I just can’t go shopping.  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. As if things couldn’t get any worse, mu husband Jim was talking to his boss who mentioned how much fun he had at last years dinner party so essentially invited himself.  Jim must have “forgotten” to tell me again last night. 

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. I hope I’m not coming down with the flu or something.  It’ll be a blow for the kids. People have come to expect the happy cheerful me at Christmas time. I don’t want to bring down the party.

Ugh. I really, really don’t feel so good.  Excuse me…. WHAT!? My Christmas stress is officially over. 

I just got the news that me and my husband are having a baby! Bring on the party! I guess the holiday garland might get hung this year.
