Happy second day of the best month of the whole year!
I am going to strive to celebrate every single day this month.
While it would be nice to think that everyday will consist of a different, extravagant holiday activity, unfortunately there's a little thing called work that will ensure that will not be the case. (Again, can someone please explain to me why the entire month of December is not considered a national holiday where we get off work?)
Just because real life must continue doesn't mean there's not room for celebrating. I plan on celebrating every day of December, and I encourage you to do the same. Don't get so caught up in your to-do list that you miss out on the magic of Christmas. Listen to Christmas music on the way to work. Throw on a Christmas movie while you clean the house. Bake cookies. Buy stockings at the dollar store. Celebrating doesn't have to cost a lot of money or a lot of time.
One of the worst things ever is looking forward to Christmas all year long, only to have it rush past you before you have a chance to enjoy it because you were too busy. Taking a little bit of time to celebrate each day is a good way to keep that from happening.
Merry Christmas, beautiful people!
[[Also, Happy Cyber Monday! The Black Friday codes for my new shop are still good until midnight tonight!]]
