I know its too soon. Don’t come for me. But also, we listened to Christmas music on the way to and from Kinasao on the weekend.
I know its still a good handful of weeks away but I am grossly unprepared considering where I’d like to be. Its not my favorite feeling, though I do believe I will catch up.
Usually at this point I have a great gift list going already for all the kids, and I have hardly put thought into it. Conveniently, gifts aren’t the point. But they’re still fun and obviously a total highlight. Hopefully I can get there soon.
Also at this point, I like to have the whole message written for our Christmas card, and indeed, I do not have that locked and/or loaded whatsoever.
I have one or two things organized ahead of time, which feels good, but its a drop in the bucket. Even with a very simple Christmas, if there are lots of people, it becomes large. Not complaining at all! Just, perspective. It can get intense. Though, apparently, not as intense as other things…

There is time. ALL the deep breaths.
