Since I recognize that the holidays are often busy, stressful, and not so holly jolly, I want to remind you of some of the things we singles should be grateful for and also give you all some ideas to bring a bit more joy to your Christmas season.
- We can plan time away without permission or agreement (within reason)
- We can decorate as little or as much and in any fashion we want.
- We don't have to share the goodies and gifts we receive.
- We can get a little extra fluffy (or unshaved) and no one knows the difference or cares.
- We can listen to Christmas music and watch movies without enduring eye rolls or ridicule.
- Some of us have less work to do overall... less food to make, fewer gifts to wrap, one side of the family to visit, etc.
Some ways to make your holidays more jolly:
- Travel with your kids.
- Give to a cause - time or money or both
- Keep things simple and NOT perfect
- Take care of yourself- take a bath, a walk, a nap.
- Pamper yourself. Get a facial or massage.
- Say a prayer. Meditate. Reflect on things you are grateful for.
Merry Christmas, Friends!
xoxo,
Stacie
