Managing Holiday Stress: Struggling to Juggle Work and Festivities?

·Dec 12, 2025 05:57 PM·

Anyone else fried this week? Between christmas shopping, schedules, taking some classes this week, and work (plus 3 snowdays for kids), I'm dragging. I hope your December is much more merry 🙂 🎄 🎁

Lots of little work fire drills this week! I'm a notoriously last minute shopper so I'm happy I've gotten some done…

Yes, but I'm not working at the moment (just interviews) and my son just came home from college so I'm starting to turn this frown upside down. Yay! He's home for a month. I'm so excited!

Sometimes I tell people in October, hey the holidays are coming, if I'm unreachable, unresponding, dropping life... please revisit in January.
