I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I am kinda relieved that it is over. Don't get me wrong, I love my family. My side of the family is easy. I make myself crazy to make my in-laws happy, I just need to understand that will never happen.
Melly, I know exactly what you mean...families that don't live with us can be difficult..especially when you can't please them..I have the same thing here too.
I wonder how many of us have this to deal with?
Maybe we can get ABEAR to poll this for us...it always makes me feel better when I know I am not the only one with difficult family members.
I too am glad Christmas is over...and I love Christmas...I just love to get my house back in order and know I don't have to go anywhere or cook anything special, or wrap any gifts, etc.
Thank you for the wonderful support. I am having a "duster day". My mom started it years ago. You wakeup and take your shower and put on pajamas again. I try to have this once a month. Sometimes I just catch up on my paperwork, deskwork. Other times I just stay in bed and read.
Melly, I try to do the same thing...I call them a jammie day. I give myself a facial, do my nails, and put on a comfy pair of flannel jammies...I usually throw something in the crockpot and crochet and watch movies...it has been awhile for me...I try to do the once a month thing too..usually it is when I am having my monthly cycle anyway...lol
There was a small flyer with my last Sunday paper and I just clipped them and put them as well as some more in an envelope to send out to you tomorrow Carol. Long white envie.

I almost missed mine since it was stuck in one of the ads found two of them though. The coupons have been pretty scarce during December I hope January proves to be more plentiful.
I will have a small envelope to send in this week.
