Relax!

This is a post in a forum at ScrapHappyKT that I wrote.  I hadn’t realized how stressed I had been about everything, and then while writing this, I came to a wonderful conclusion about everything.

“Oh man, I thought I was alone! I haven’t wrapped any presents yet, and my house is a wreck! I have to work all the way through Christmas (and we’re open till 11pm at Michaels).

I’m hosting Christmas this year at my place because my parents have been through a lot lately and haven’t been able to do much. My father has recently been diagnosed with a rare form of Lukemia, but after his Chemo a couple of weeks ago, his blood work is looking great. So we’re all thrilled. This form of cancer is very treatable, but still very scary. So I want this Christmas to be extra special for everybody.

I volunteered to do everything so my parents don’t have to worry or stress. I even took all of the gifts that they bought my kids to wrap for them, so they didn’t have to worry about it. So, needless to say, there are gifts everywhere that need wrapping, a house that needs cleaning, and groceries all over my kitchen. (My cupboards have never seen so much food ) Auuuggghhh!!!!

Wow, I didn’t mean to pour so much out. (Maybe I’ll scrap that). Anyway, it’s good to see that I’m not alone.

Maybe we all worry too much and forget that this time of year, we really shouldn’t worry as much. Do the best you can and everything else will work itself out.

(Don’t forget to charge those batteries for the camera and get an empty flash card ready! We’ll have lots of scrappin to do when this is all said and done!)”

So everybody chill, and enjoy your holiday!!!!!
