I am STILL thinking about adding as much Christmas Magic as possible.... for US! The Christmas Magicians!
For me.... it starts with peace. Personal peace. If I am frazzled and tired..... there is NO magic for ANYBODY! My mood spoils it for everyone else! (And, of course, being frazzled spoils it for me too!)
So... peace is the first thing.
So what destroys "peace" for me?
Being overwhelmed. Having too much to do... so I am rushed and exhausted. Not having enough money for what I feel "absolutely must" be done! I could probably write a book about this.
What do you think?
AND.... I think that the more I do before Christmas..... even in March..... the more chance I have of having "peace" at Christmas. Bonus: probably more peace during the year too.
And... it is NOT about having all the presents wrapped by Thanksgiving.... although that is very very nice. I'll write more later about what it IS about!
What do YOU think? Perhaps we can inspire each other!
