Working more on me!

Thanksgiving was very nice. I made an extreme effort to make sure that I was only doing what I wanted to do and not just going along for the ride to make someone else happy. That worked pretty well and kept me from feeling like a third wheel like I usually do on these family outings. YEAH ME! I can be taught!

Christmas is WAY too close to Thanksgiving this year but thankfully I'm not too stressed about it. We already decided that there will be no Christmas presents in our house. Just together time and that is really what is best.

My big family Christmas eve get together is another story but we did decide to change it up a little this year. We are going to draw names instead of buying or making gifts for each family or individuals. I usually bake or make candy for each family unit so just getting one gift from each of us to one individual will be a welcome change and a time saver for sure.

Everything else is just meandering along but that is ok too. I'm not in the mood to be making any big changes right now.
