THE WHISPER~

Ahhhh it is in the air now.

That almost irritating whisper. I have been ignoring it. Sort of.

It is calling me everyday.

I find other projects to tend to or create.

I can't ignore it anymore.

Rafiki does this every year.

He talks to me and tells me,

"IT IS TIME"

The trees are coming out this weekend.

I will find the lights I want for the outside of the house come hell or high water.

The baking will commence. (Ok, who am I kidding with that one?)

I will buy Trish's goodies and pass them off as mine at parties. (Again, no one will buy that either, so I will give her all the credit she so deserves.)

I will become one with the Spirit of Shopping.

I will start my tradition of wrapping presents behind locked doors watching movies until the wee hours of the night.

I will hide more presents than I will find when Christmas Eve arrives.

I can smell the candles and scents of Christmas already!

I will take the time to make cookies with the kids.

I will be in my happiest of places!

1 Lightbulb moments:

The Glenns said...

I take it "Bah Humbug" is not something we say here.

I will try to get excited enough about the holidays to NOT tell the truth about the fat guy.

I will try to go to all the family parties we are invited to, and not send Dan alone with the kids.

I will try to put decorations on the tree.

I will not complain when Dan spends all day putting up lights that we only turn on once, before the circuit blows and we dont turn them on again all season.

I will tolerate the ginger-bread-house night. It is extremely painful for me.

I will sit through all the concerts.

I DO love the fact that Dan has every holiday off this season, and I won't dwell on the holidays past, or the ones that are surely to come when he will not be here.

I will try to forget about the incident involving the mean cop who reduced me to tears and depression one year on Christmas Eve.

Maybe this is the year....
