Stress

Well the month is slowly edging along. As we all know there was a slight dysfunction in our clocks the past couple days. I have been looking forward to setting the clock back as we get to gain an hour of sleep! When it finally got here I actually forgot. I woke up Sunday morning and got very excited as I thought I had slept in until 7:30. It was so exciting. I got up went to the bathroom and as I returned I realized that it was actually 6:30 and I had woken up at the same time I normally do. It was very sad. I still have not fixed the clocks and it has been rather amusing attempting to figure out what time it really is. Kinda odd how the day stretches and changes based on our perceptions.



Anyway back to the stress comment. I am so excited for Christmas this year. I have a few tricks up my sleeve for the hubby can't wait to start our 'first' Christmas together. Last year we spent Christmas with his family, saying goodbye to Alabama and such. I am excited to have our very own Christmas this year where we can incorporate both of our traditions and create our own new family traditions. My mom keeps trying to convince us that we want to spend Christmas eve at here house but I would rather just spend it with David. This will be the first time I could have spent it with her and choose not too.

As for the past week things have been hectic at work but boring in the evening. David has had to work until at least 10 every night and we crash as soon as he gets home, therefore I never see him. It really really sucks. We found out about a week ago that his parents and older brother will be staying with us for thanksgiving. We are excited but the wife syndrome hit a couple of days later. My house needs to be UBER clean, gotta have good food (sorry Dean I am not buying whole milk, don't think I will have room in the fridge and we don't drink it), gotta rearrange to fit everyone, figure out where to put everything, and make everyone comfortable. I know I am going overboard but I stress when I don't know details, ya know? This thanksgiving should be a blast and it will be great to see his family for more than a couple of hours. The only down side to this is not being able to set up the Christmas tree. As stated above I am totally psyched for Christmas and wanted to set it up the day before thanksgiving as Christmas season officially starts at 2 a.m. on black Friday and I will not have time or the mental capabilities to do it after (excuse). Oh well you can mock me all you want but I am SO excited!!! Anyway as stated David has been gone and while I know I need to clean I have been stressing about how much work there is to do and how overwhelmed I feel and because of this have not been doing much other than watch t.v.. Saturday was such a day and I ended up ripping 30 cd's to my itunes and for my younger brother and typing up a four page to-do list to prepare for the holidays.

Must hop to it!

P.S. I love Zumba just in case you were wondering.
