Usually.<br /><br />This year, however, we've all been laid low with the flu, and just as I was finishing nursing all the kids I got it too, worse than anyone. Gone planning, gone fun activities. Right now we'll be lucky if we have a batch of cookies. So I'm now going to make my own list of what's essential for us and stick with that.

I get so bored with all the hustle and bustle and typically missing the "true meaning of Christmas".Instead of being exhausted this year and unfulfilled, I'm going to do what I want and enjoy each little piece. If I don't WANT to do it, I'm not doing it!!
