You Are a Bright Christmas Tree |
![]() For you, the holidays are all about fun and seasonal favorites. You are into all things Christmas, even if they’re a little tacky. |
The housesitter is set. Most of my stuff is loaded in the car. Everything else is gathered around and waiting to be carried out. I got my Christmas cards taken care of. Washed some more clothes. Dishwasher is ready to be run. I have an early morning wake-up call set up. And beyond all that, I’m not all stressed as I was last night. Things feel much smoother at this point. Delaying a day, intentional or not, seems to have been a wonderful idea.
“All or nothing is easy. Learning to have just a little bit is discipline.”
So much for leaving town today. I’m such a moron. I wasn’t done packing around 2 AM, but I decided that I was really tired. So I laid down, completely dressed, thinking that I would rest just for a few minutes. Lights all on, dishwasher standing open, TV on. I woke up at 10:30. Lights all on and so forth. Pretty much as I left it last night. Except one thing. I found all my clothes lying on the floor beside my bed. I somehow undressed in my sleep. It’s a shame there’s no film of me getting out of my jeans in my sleep. I’d like to see what that looked like.
So I called Mom and said, “How about tomorrow?” Just as well it appears, as it’s been snowing. But I still feel like an idiot.
