Jingle Bells, Batman Smells

Okay, so the post title seems a little immature, but some day's you just gotta let loose.
I think the main reason I wrote it was mostly because that's how I feel this Christmas season.
Let's get this straight - I LOVE Christmas, so much. It's by far my most favorite time of year, as much as I love the warm weather of the summer (and being from the Prairies, man do you miss the warmth); I love Christmas.
Love, love love.
But this year with everything we've been through, the financial strain we've been under, the constant emotional pressure and uncertainty has certainly affected my Christmas spirit.
Life has been so incredibly up and down, I just want to be able to enjoy my holiday season and not have to worry about opening up my mailbox and finding another dreaded WCB letter.
Maybe that's selfish, I could have it so much worse. We might not have bought mortgage insurance, we may never had found a suitable renter, or the worst of all, I might not have had Michael.
I'm going to try really hard to enjoy my holiday season and not stress.

Next week my sister-in-law comes for five days which I am really, really excited for. I only have a half day of work while she's here and the rest of the time off. (Yes for 3 weeks vacay a year!)
I'm going to soak up all of the holy-jolly goodness I can and for hopefully at least the span of my two favorite days, not stress and just enjoy life.

Hope you all have a wonderful week.

Alex
