After taking care of two children under the age of 5, a very busy husband, an entire household and a crazy job, when is there time to get ready for the holidays, purchase a zillion gifts, send out Christmas cards, wrap and ship gifts, go to holiday parties, visit Santa etc..? Wow.
Whenever I start to feel like my head is going to shoot off of the top of my head, I have to stop and remind myself that the holidays is supposed to be fun. I have to literally tell myself to settle down and try to provide myself some reassurance that somehow it will all magically get done.
If you have to ship packages, I have figured out that if you go up to the post office after it is closed at night and use the automated machine, you can completely avoid waiting in those frustrating lines. One thing that you have to remember is that the size of the box has to fit into the drop box. I would check it out at your post office before you pack things up. You can buy stamps through the machine too. It worked for me last night. I can check that one off the list.
Another tip is that if you want to get things done, put on the Polar Express movie for your kids. It will buy you at least an hour of uninterrupted time to finish up your project.
