LOL, you wished I were that easy!
Truthfully, Christmas is getting a tad bit old to me. I think I’m losing my Christmas cheer. My kids had been at each other’s throats for the last few weeks. There’s been crying, screaming & a whole lot of running. I’ve found broken ornaments, spilt drinks and cookie crumbs all over the house! Our youngest child is doing her best to test the naughty or nice Santa list. She’s been terrorizing us with her defiant attitude especially when it comes to finishing her dinner.
The gifts are trickling in, but the damn UPS man should at least try to deliver them while the kids are at school! Instead, he comes later and later every time. There’s nothing more annoying than seeing your two little boys ogling at that Amazon box, wondering what it has in store for them!
Wrapping gifts had been quite a chore too! The process of picking the gifts, ordering them should be enough for some but not for me! I just happen to volunteer to wrap them too! The window of time between the kids going to sleep and me falling asleep is getting smaller every day. I distinctly remember wrapping some gifts last night but completely forgot to put tags on them so I had to open some this morning to make sure the correct kid gets the correct present. FML.
Some days I do this really well but it had been quite a struggle this week. I feel like I am losing my rhythm but my OCD is in high gear. It’s like PMSing with a touch of OCD & depression. There’s still clothes to be washed, rooms/bathrooms to clean, grocery shopping, dinner to cook and around the clock baking next week. Again, FML!
Anyway, I will try to be a trooper and suck it up! I too have to make an effort to be good … otherwise there’s going to be nothing there for me under that Christmas tree! Oh! Ok, it’s not like I really care! Buh! Humbug!
Here’s my list in no particular order …
