Sometimes December can seem overwhelming with people bustling about, going shopping, and stressing over gifts and activities of the season. I have been trying to cut back the stress by thinking about what it is that I enjoy about the month of December.
I like that our advent calendar is ready to go at the beginning of December each year. I don't have to purchase any toys, candy, or even write notes. The focus here is on the passing and savoring of each day.
Tomorrow I'll have a booth at the "All The Trimmings" craft/art show at the Chelsea Fairgrounds. The hours are 10-4. I hope some of you local readers can make it. I would love to see you there.
After the show tomorrow I am looking forward to a month of fun - making gifts, twinkling lights, baking cookies, family games, visiting with friends, and singing with the holiday cds.
What are your favorite December activities?
