Perspective

The house is a total mess. 

Gifts still need to be wrapped. 

Hell, some gifts still need to be purchased

Honestly, I’m feeling frazzled and like I’m not quite as top of things as I should be.  Could be.  Would like to be.

So what did we do all weekend? 

Called loved ones.  Met up with friends for wine and snacks.  Stayed in and watched movies.  Had a leisurely lunch together.  Counted our blessings and took a minute to appreciate everything, because we have so much.  Everyone who has a present under our tree will get to open his or her gift because we’re all here. 

To say that we are lucky is an understatement.
