Are you like me and you have only just realised we have very little time now before Christmas Day? (First world problem I know!)
I am getting myself into my usual anxious state. I’ve left most things to the last minute as I always do. Granted I feel like I have a reasonable excuse this year because of our wonderful 8 month old DD, who is the best but she keeps me somewhat busy!
I think I have just reached a new peak of self induced stress. Thought I’d received a new notification of a present I wanted to buy for DD saying it was back in stock. So I quickly got it ordered, then afterwards I thought hmmm let’s just check I didn’t order it last week and that it wasn’t an old notification…. I had 🙈 So then I’ve just been on the John Lewis website for the past half an hour on and off repeatedly clicking cancel order and refresh but it was too late. I think my brain is totally frazzled now with what I have and haven’t done and I need to get some sleep whilst DD is sleeping!
But before then, I’m stressing because I haven’t got a single decoration up yet, the house is a tip and needs a major clean and tidy plus all the Christmas dec boxes are cluttering up the place. I’ve only written half the cards I need to get in the post. I haven’t wrapped up 3/4 of the presents yet. And I’ve still got a few to buy. I haven’t thought about what food we need yet. I bet there is more to do that I just can’t think of 😢
But I need to put it all into perspective I know, I think it’s the pressure I’m putting on myself for DD’s first Christmas. Like I said, first world problems, I should just be thankful for everything we’ve got considering the times we’re living in.
Anyway come and join me if you want to and we can stress out together 😂
Merry Christmas everyone 🎄🎄🎄
(Sorry I didn’t mean to waffle on quite so much, if you reached the end of that lot well done!)
