(To truly get the full effect of the title say it with a somewhat confused look on your face holding one finger in the air.) That is an indication of how I felt when I started looking at my December calendar this morning. Yet another mind boggling question for me is, how the heck does the calendar fill up so fast during the holidays?! Looking at the rehearsals and parties and programs, causes me to wonder what do we do the rest of the year? Obviously, nothing in comparison to all we do in December.
I am trying to find a good time to run back to OKC and spend some time with my mom. She has been in the hospital and is recovering from a fractured hip, and well let's just say a rough month. But the calendar is RELENTLESS. Just about the time I think I have found
the perfect time to slow down , I notice a very valid reason why the earth will not continue to rotate on its currant axis if I do. This puts an enormous amount of pressure on me. The funny thing is no one else seems to see it the same way I do. The kids actually seem to act as if they wouldn't mind store bought cookies at the class party. And I'm not sure Edgar cares if the bows on the Christmas packages are handmade or not. So this is a Christmas experiment for me. I am going to actually drop everything and do what I want to do not what I feel like I need to do. Be forewarned if gravity ceases to exist in the next few days....that would be my fault. And I'm willing to bear the responsibility.
