The Delights of Christmas…
We love to decorate, and get cozy on our farm at Christmas. Wreathes, candles, battery operated lights. “Less is best” has become my mantra the last couple of years, it really helps keep Christmas real and less stressful.
People get so stressed at this time of year. They need to change their whole attitude about Christmas altogether. Simplicity, my friend is the key. Soup, bread, snuggling with your children, hot cocoa, sledding, snowshoeing, playing, creating, giving to others, don’t let stress & money to get in the way. I’ve been there, done that! No Thanks. Even if family and friends have expectations, don’t succumb to it. Nicely explain that you have decided to go simpler route this Christmas. Make gifts, sale shop, thrift shop, draw names, whatever you need to do this Christmas to simplify your Christmas experience.
Enjoy the everyday! Make it special just by enjoying it! I know that sounds a little redundant, but I want you to see how easy it really can be.
Cheers to Christmas and the simple life!
