It never fails … well, actually, it usually does fail. But for some reason this year I got the “gift” a little early. I received it on Sunday in the middle of church – “The Christmas Crud”.
Stopped up nose.
Sneezing uncontrollably.
Pressure behind my eyes.
An overwhelming need to rest.
It has ruled my life the last three days. The timing was impeccable. I had gifts to buy, food to prepare, and a house that still wasn’t 100% decorated.
But, as it always works out, Christmas will still happen. I’ll probably be a crazy person for the next 36 hours … but it will happen.
Why do we all do this to ourselves every year? For Christmas to be my favorite time of year, it certainly does add stress to my life.
… but even with all the added “duties”, I can’t wait 🙂
