Because I most definitely do not feel ready. But I think that I may be ready. I think that my lists and obsessive scurrying and hurrying and scrubbing and cleaning mean that I am about ready as I can get.
Except for the wrapping all of my consumerism in pretty paper part.
And the cooking excessive amounts of food part.
And maybe the 2 a.m. cold-sweat panic that will hit when I think that I have forgotten to get someone something that I totally meant to get him and now his day, his Christmas, for the love of God, his LIFE will be ruined. Forever. Because I forgot to throw the Rubic’s Cube in my shopping cart.
But that’s probably just my neuroticism showing its sexy self again.
So, I’m going to spend the next two days putting the finishing touches on my Christmas preparations, spending time with my highly charged smalls, and trying to talk myself out of making fudge (and eating it all in one sitting). Honestly, I’m shooting for a two out of three success rate on that one.
Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanza, A belated Happy Hanukkah, and all the best to you and your friends and families 🙂

Thanks for sharing with us all year. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours!
Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you and your family, Kim! Thank you for hanging out with me this year. I’ll be here most of the time in 2016 (I hope more often than I managed in 2015). I hope you’ll still join me 🙂 I have a feeling it’s going to be an interesting year!
