stress. sigh.

It is really, really raining outside. This is nice. I am all conflicted about whether I should go to bed (which would be the sane thing to do, considering the time and the fact that the alarm goes off to bring in a busy, busy day at 7:00), or stay up and read by the fire, enjoying the quiet and the sound of the rain. Such hard decisions.


I've been quiet the last few days; things have been kind of stressful, and very busy. What with Christmas, Thanksgiving, and three people's birthdays, we are having gatherings of the same 12-15 people FIVE TIMES in these four weeks, three of them at my house. Someday we'll have to break down and combine celebrations but I have always resisted that. We like each one to be fully separate. But this is getting ridiculous. At any rate, I'll be glad when things are more normal, and I hate that my favorite time of year is becoming such a dreaded source of stress. We've got to figure out how to change that.
