i'm pretty sure that
my christmas button is broken.
i keep
pushing it
and
pushing it.

and nothing happens.

no warm fuzzies
or holiday cheer.
my heart isn't bursting with
altruistic tidings
of
all things christmas to humankind.

i think the connecting wires
were
severed and pulled apart.

does anyone know a good repairman?

because i'm definitely in need.

Oh, Dawn, I do think I could use the repairman myself or, maybe, I need to check in at the Christmas Clinic for an infusion of Santa Spirit, IV, please.

I just keep asking, "Who's birthday is it, anyway? Does anyone remember what the party is about?"

Your picture is superb.

You need snow or Manneheim Steamroller to turn you on..hahahaha. But know just how you feel. Stay warm and cozy to those closest to you. Staying in bed a lot longer helps too, but I never have time.

I so completely understand. I went from not being excited to out-and-out HATING the season for the past 7 years. This is the first year where I've felt even a little excited and have put on Christmas music of my own volition. You two should come up here! The kids' excitement is sure to rub off on you!

I'm into it all, but it all feels too rushed. I loathe feeling stressed about something that's supposed to be fun.

I'm sorry you're having the xmas blahs. It happens to the best of us.
