My feeling is I can only do what I can and I'm not going to make myself crazy about it. Believe me, I had tons of things planned that I'm not doing or making!<br /><br />ManuelaManuela@A Cultivated Nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282273791971364124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5476388007317102637.post-25547702085628225032009-12-11T10:14:55.652-07:002009-12-11T10:14:55.652-07:00with ZERO money to spend on christmas this year we...with ZERO money to spend on christmas this year we opted out of all of the family present drawings. we are doing stockings for brennan and us and sending candy to all of the nieces and nephews. it has made christmas so much more enjoyable to not have to worry about presents for everyone. we may have to keep this up...Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11555733621307512935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5476388007317102637.post-85672516154840675692009-12-11T10:06:53.026-07:002009-12-11T10:06:53.026-07:00I am more stressed than ever before this Christmas...I am more stressed than ever before this Christmas, which is why it surprises me that I am actually still enjoying the holiday. Makes no sense whatsoever.<br /><br />I do wish I could simplify though, especially on the gift-giving. I keep saying I want to do it every year, but I never quite get it done. I'd like to give every person four gifts. Something you want, something you need, something to wear, something to read. Period.<br /><br />But it's hard to change the tradition everyone is used to.<br /><br />"/Susan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16049586085703324088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5476388007317102637.post-11871981336358716012009-12-10T16:05:29.719-07:002009-12-10T16:05:29.719-07:00Oh, if this isn't the truth, but...

I am totally stressed this year because I am blogging and seeing a bit too much perfection. ;-) But in the end, I get it done.<br /><br />Thanks for coming by!!<br /><br />xoxo<br />JanieBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5476388007317102637.post-48284750681122687202009-12-10T15:55:10.046-07:002009-12-10T15:55:10.046-07:00Lisa...I'm so with you!

Because I haven't got a thing done! <br /><br />With "The Italian's" dad being sick we haven't had a free weekend or evening to do anything. I started to stress out and then I stopped myself and remembered that I'm blessed with a great family and with great friends...if it gets done it gets done. <br /><br />Those pictures and models take hours and hours to stage and prepare...I don't have the time or the energy! lol<br /><br />Hang in there sweet friend, things can be perfectly imperfect!<br /><br />Love and hugs,<br />KarynWinchester Manorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07381226107593087108noreply@blogger.com
