I don't know about everyone else, but I am stressed this holiday season! I honestly think the reason why is because not only do I have a child now, but his birthday is a couple weeks before and I have to get through THAT first before I can REALLY start to think about Christmas! Hopefully as the years go on I can master this situation because I don't know if I can do this every year! Mind you, he will NOT be having a party like this every year. He is going to be ONE so I have to do a little something, right?
Not only do I have the party, but my car officially died 3 weeks ago and we only have had James' truck between us! And with him remodeling a clients bathroom and me & him working our normal jobs, and doctor and vet appointments, it's challenging! So we are looking for a car on top of that. We think we found one but we have opposite schedules so we can only go Saturday. So let's pray the one we are interested in is still there! I swear the car dealers hate us because we are the "we're just looking" couple, not the "we are going to buy tonight" couple. It is a HUGE money decision and James and I pride ourselves on being pretty good with our finances, so we have to REALLY think it out.
And to make matters worse, Tucker has been sick for a month now and having a sick child is NO FUN! We found out he had croup the day after Thanksgiving and he is still trying to kick it completely. Never ending I tell ya!
So, I know this time of year brings stress, but I REALLY need to learn to manage it better! I feel like when my life is stessful, my house completely falls in disaray! I have yet to put up my Christmas decorations also and honestly, I am contemplating doing so. I know I will end up doing it just because we have Tucker this year, but MAN, it's a lot of work! So, maybe here in the NEAR future I will post fun things like Christmas decor, new car, Tuckers first birthday party, clean house, projects completed for Christmas gifts, James' remodel of a clients bathroom, etc.....but, until then, you get my stressed out, neurotic, somewhat crazy post. I hope you enjoyed my rant.
