What a pain!


Christmas is right around the corner and there are several things remaining on my to-do list. The tree is done and the shopping too. Two more gifts to wrap and I am done! However, those Christmas cards may need to wait until next year. Maybe I can find some "Happy New Year!" cards instead. You may be feeling the time crunch too. Or, maybe your wallet is a bit more light this year. I found several videos on YouTube describing the 12 pains of Christmas. Here is one that you may enjoy:

Although you may be jolly during most years, you have likely had a challenging moment when you think of some of the pains during the holiday season. Maybe it is the long line at the post office or the check-out counter. Maybe it's the challenge of finding the parking spot at the crowded mall. Maybe you've noticed that they have all the sizes --- except the one that you need. (Try a gift card instead!)

I celebrate Christmas every year --- but sometimes my checklist is shorter on some years than others. Or, maybe there are some items that just aren't completed. However, I try to remember the reason for the season when I get a little frustrated or stressed out. I'm hoping that you understand that too! I hope that your holidays are happy! Merry Christmas all!
