It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Ok, so I borrowed some song lyrics for this post's title. But I really do think that December is the most wonderful time of the year. We celebrate the birth of baby Jesus and me. We gather with lots of friends and family, we eat too much food, we buy gifts for those we love....and sometimes ourselves. It makes me sad though that all of this also comes with so much stress and exhaustion.

In the fantasy world where I spend all my time when I'm not at work, I am like Brittany in this week's episode of Glee. Well, not quite, but I really do feel like Christmas is supposed to be a wonderfully magic time of year. In moments of calm, I can feel this magic. Unfortunately, my moments of calm are few and far between.

For the next few weeks, between your 3rd and 4th glass of wine, take a moment to think about the joys of the season, how you love your family and friends and that this month only, it's totally ok to have a 5th cookie.
