I woke up this morning and the feeling of overwhelming stress hit me. It’s that holiday feeling. Not that good one but one of panic!
There will be 4 children and 5 adults here later tonight and I am planning on not drinking and just trying to deal with everything. At least I was but as the hours pass and it is getting closer to everyone being here I am thinking about just a couple relaxing bottles of wine to help me relax.. err glasses wow think there was something going on in my brain there.. Like it will take 2 bottles of wine to relax. hahaha.. I’m funny sometimes.
Christmas won’t be that bad because it will be all adults. There is the opening of presents which I am embarrassed by. I never know if I react properly .. lots of stress.
Needless to say it will be tough couple of days, then we mix and repeat new year’s eve. I can make it through it though. I may have anxiety attacks and I may feel like running, but I can do this. It’s something normal family’s do.
Anyhow I hope you have a wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, see you tomorrow!
Good luck

The holiday is full of feelings of anxiety to me also. I don’t know how we will get through but I guess we will and then it will be Dec.26. Even that sounds depressing and I have no idea why. I hope you survive unscathed and have some moments of peace and even magic.
Peace and Harmony,
Annie
