Is it the change of weather, the lack of sleep from cooking the Thanksgiving feast, the carbohydrate coma of afterwards, or the pressures from the upcoming property taxes due on December 1st amidst the expectation that Christmas decorations are "supposed" to have cheerfully gone up by now???? I want to know. And I want a nap. Maybe I just need vitamins. That might help. All I know is that I have managed to keep the kitchen clean at least. Kudos for me! But I see other things piling up...dust, laundry, animal care issues, and there's that ding on my windshield!

Great job... amusing to read, probably less so, to experience! Thankfully, I don't have to contend with "lack of sleep from cooking the Thanksgiving feast, the carbohydrate coma of afterwards, or the pressures from the upcoming property taxes due on December 1st". Only a couple of weeks until holidays! I do however need to write our annual Christmas epistle, which I always enjoy better after it's done... the process is less fun! Definitely take time for a well deserved reset!
Oh no, your plate seems so full right now! Hopefully things would get better for you soon
Oh no! A crack in the windshield! I have a scratch on my passenger door on my new car! 500. Deductible. It sucks!! Thank fully my last windshield was buffed out and maybe this can be too... I'm dreading finding out! So sorry. Is it the holidays making it stressful?
Haha. This is so true. I suggest a large glass of wine - perhaps even two! Great stuff!
Hahahaha, go watch some TV and take a much needed break!
BREATHE!
