All I Want For Christmas

All I Want For Christmas
All I want for Christmas is to be sane come Christmas morning, and not too batshit crazy between now and then.

What is it about the holidays? We all go a little crazy. I could say it's because we've lost touch with the true meaning of Christmas, but I'm not so sure this is an appropriate site for that kind of talk. Plus, I'm a realist, even the church ladies will cut you if you try beating them to the last Elsa doll. If their lil darlin wants it they will do anything in their power to get her that damn frozen doll. I'm cool with that, my like Olaf better anyway.

Now if I could just get my little darlins to tell me what the fuck they want, I'd be set. So far all I have is that wee one wants a hatchet, and the eldest one wants a Klinkhammer shirt. She also wants a bigger bed, hardwood flooring in her bedroom, some fresh paint on the walls, and a TV. I'm thinking she needs to get her ass back in college so she can maybe not live in that room for the rest of her life, but we'll adress that after Christmas. The middle is cool, she just comes up to me in stores and hands me stuff that she wants, then I say "maybe, now go away." So yeah she knows every single thing she's getting, but she's not feeding into her moms batshit crazy. I like that .

My thoughts on decorating.....No one cares as much as you do, so take it easy. The last 5 years I've cussed and muttered "I'm getting a new tree next year" the entire time we're setting up the tree and stringing the damn lights. I guess I meant it last year, because I bought a new one this year, a prelit one, just assemble and plug in. It's not set up, that's this evening's family fun. I bought new ornaments too, I'm thinking if I don't have to go the attic for ornaments, I won't haul down all 87 boxes of Christmas decorations.

Baking....buy cookies, support local small businesses, save yourself the mess and stress, yet still mow through an extra 3,000 calories a day. Some grocery stores will sell you the entire christmas dinner, just reheat and eat. Be sure to pick up another cookie tray while you're there. You can never have too many cookies. Never. Ever.

I'm not sure I've ever been this "far behind" when it comes to Christmas, I used to have the shopping done around halloween, I'd normally have a few batches of cookies in the freezer by now. The tree is usually up the weekend after Thanksgiving. I'm slacking this year, and I feel pretty damn good about it.

 What a great outlook on things! As much as I hate to go shopping, I find it amusing to watch people at the mall or worse, Wal Mart run around like their heads are on fire. Try to keep the sanity! Merry Christmas!
