Our lives may be busy most of the year, but things seem to escalate during the holiday season. Between the extra shopping, baking, cleaning, and everything else on our list of things to do, our schedules are hectic. At some point, we just need a break.
You probably already know this, but much of the holiday chaos is created by our own hands. We want the holidays to be memorable, so we keep adding things every year to make it more special. How many times have you seen a decorating theme, the television version of a holiday tradition, or a meal in a magazine that you think would be ‘just perfect’ for this year? I confess to doing that myself many, many times. There is just something magical about all those colors, textures, and twinkling lights that draw me in. It’s very hard to resist.
But by adding all the extras, or completely changing holiday themes, we end up with a few added problems. First, we could easily blow our entire budget on decorations alone. Which means we spend money we don’t have any longer to buy all the gifts we still need to get.
A second issue is time. It takes time to rearrange furniture to make room for the bigger tree, taking down and temporarily storing all the knickknacks that are already there to make room for the angels, elves, Santas, and other extras we want to display.
Has it all become too much? Then listen in as we talk about ways to Undo some of the Holiday Chaos!
