Christmas Whirlwind














I know Christmas is over but I am a procrastinator and I just want to write how it all went down.......
Homemade Christmas cards, that sounds fun
Oh shoot, what did I get myself into
I can't believe I am doing this!
After five times of trying to get a cute family picture
I give up, someones gotta look bad
I guess that will be me
Bird themed Christmas tree OK that's cute
Progressive dinner party planned for 40 young men and women
complete with a hayride and all
sooo stressful, but well worth it, turned out to be a success
Baklava, cream filled pizzelles, and sugar cookies
maybe a little too ambitious
It would have been nice to brush my hair and change out of my flour
covered clothes for delivery.
Still, so great to visit with some dear friends
This is all to much I cant handle it
I think I am failing
I need to stop and say a sincere prayer
of gratitude and a plea for help and comfort.
Oh that feels nice... I know I am loved
I forget,that's the spirit I am supposed to be feeling
this time of year
After all of the stress and preparation, the day is finally here
Good day, Good presents........ A motorcycle wow
Time for a vacation and a fresh new year
Note to self- Next year, start earlier!

I know the feeling. I know that Christmas is always a busy time, but this year it seemed to hit everyone pretty hard. I am excited for life to slow down.
