There's been just too much going on lately to be able to get anything accomplished! Seems the powers that be have me confused with someone who is able, physically, to run hither, thither and yon and still be able to multi-task in a upright position! lol I have enough problems when I'm sitting! All that being said, it's that time of year when things seem to pile up faster, fewer things seems to get done in a lot more time and we find ourselves frantic at the thought of all that needs to be done, bought, decorated, etc. Well, it's time we all learned to slow down, cull our lists, do only what is absolutely necessary and concern ourselves with only those things that truly matter - the people in our lives. We don't have to buy a bunch of gifts to tell people we love them. A card, a phone call can do the same thing and is SO much more personal and meaningful. I know you are thinking "she's crazy if she thinks my family will settle for.....". Well, that's the thing - is accepting the fact that someone took the time to call you or send you a card to say "I Love You" merely settling? I think not! That, above all else, is the most important thing we can do AND accept. So, try it. Don't give in to the temptation of buying beyond what you can truly afford - even Santa has to cut back this year. Buy less, give more of yourself, and a chocolate candy can go a long way-that's why they are called "kisses". lol
