My Holiday Tips
Life can be a bit crazy during this season. It can be fun, festive and a much needed break from the grind of most of the year. It can also be chock full of family drama, to many party drinks, dry skin, late nights and $$ issues. So here are my thoughts on the matter:
bubble baths are not a option, but a must!
learn to say “no”
dont allow the extended family to mess with your immediate family
you already have enough; choose to bless oragnaizations that are in true need
chapstick and essential lotions are mandates
write down what your thankful for – it will keep you grounded when you hear all the sad and negative news in the world
wear something sparkly
host a party – even if its just for you
nsync holiday music is a “happy” in life
go to your favorite coffee shop at least once
drive around and look at christmas lights
detox BEFORE the new year! Its a great head start
never put a limit on fun – just make sure it always stays fun (headaches or dark circles the next day are NOT fun)
re-read the Christmas story (from every gospel)
say “Merry Christmas!” more
wear fuzzy socks – they are the best
shape your eyebrows and clean your wedding rings
hug people more and shake hands less
never ever shop for Christmas presents the week of – it is never fun
a glowing complextion is nice but a glowing heart is best!
