I seriously have had the hardest time getting in the spirit of Christmas this year. I LOVE the season, and I've done all my shopping, had a great month...but for some reason I am just feeling so Scrooge like. Maybe it could have something to do with having a teenager that likes to pick on his brothers and sister, or maybe it's that my kids just like to pick on each other (teenage or not) and then whine or tattle when someone else does that same thing to them!! They like to cause me a lot of stress. I have earned EVERY gray hair I have!!
We had a great Anniversary weekend snowmobiling,
only to come home and find that the kids had stressed Lisa out to the max. I find out that about a foot of the lights on my house have gone out. Then tonight when I turned on the lights to my tree...this is what I get!
The whole center of my tree is out!! How pathetic!! Of course you can totally see it from the road because it's the center of the window too! What next? Oh wait...I really dont want to know!
Cant I just go back to Midway and enjoy the magical christmas feel with all the snow covered roads and trees.
With a pretty Christmas tree like this?
Oh wait, that would be asking to much! Well here's to a better tomorrow!

You too, huh???? I don't know what it is, but A LOT of people are Scroogey this year. INCLUDING ME!!!! Well, I'm not feeling like Scrooge, I just haven't had that giddy, excited air about me this year! I'm stressed to the MAX with lots of different things all piled up. I hope this NEVER happens again!!
Oh -- the hazard of lights! We've had that before and much swearing, throwing of ornaments, more swearing and re-doing of lights has ensued -- it does tend to squelch the spirit of the season -- on the upside....it is a distinct and unique tree -- and someday, you will laugh! Love you.
