Bah humbug!!!!

I know I'm not supposed to say this so stop reading if you don't like a person that's is NOT a Christmas lover ...

I am NOT. 

I hate that people can only muster being generous & kind one day a year.
I hate fake kindness - really fake anything (besides mascara & lip gloss)

I have never been good with it but as I get older I really find it offensive.

I have a very small family and it's been bumped and bruised beyond belief over the years so we all have Holiday "issues" but I can't stomach, for hours at a time, pretending we get along much less enjoy each other's company.
My mother is the worst with this and I have a hard time joining in the pretense, I always excuse myself and have again this year, which has made her mad but these days what doesn't piss her off?!?!?

I have many good friends that I have been able to share joy with but this time of year I try to keep my shit contained so as not to ruin their fun which makes for a VERY quite holiday for Moi.  It's only 72hrs and now only about 24hrs left so I know I can get through it but it doesn't make it anymore fun!  At least there are some good basketball games on tomorrow and I'm sure I can keep myself occupied with making jewelry & catching up on missed shows or a movie or two... 

New Years is a different story & this year I'm actually looking forward to as this Year has been a personal growth year and I actually weathered it well all things considered I came out on top and then some with my New Job.  I have an awesome tattoo (cover up really) that I'm getting starting next week that I'm More than excited about, good friends to celebrate with on New Years & a very fun Birthday planned!! 

So I just need to suck up then next 24 plus hours.

Well I feel better already and just because I have holiday "issues" doesn't mean you should NOT have a wonderful & cheery holiday with you and yours...

Off to do some leg lifts, crunches & push ups & my nails... that always makes me feel better!

I can DO This!!

Cheers y'all
