I am seriously not looking forward to the holidays. I think I lost the joy of it all when I realized how much damn work it is. Being the kid is GREAT for holidays, being the parent SUCKS for the holidays. So currently my mom wants to know where we will be for thanksgiving. I would prefer to avoid the stress of family and just do my own dinner at home. How do I tell my mom this? Besides what will my mother in law do? She will be alone if she does not join us. I could handle her being with us, but she makes my husband nuts! I hate the stress of having to hang out with family for the holidays. If it was just my parents then great. The problem is I still don't like my brother and now that he's married, her family will be there too. More people to give me anxiety. Plus we'll probably be forced to play some board games. So lame.
I really want to try to make the holidays enjoyable for my kids. Decorations, good food, good conversation and maybe something fun to do. The one thing I am excited about is learning so much about organic foods and finding the supplies at the co-op, I can actually do some baking that is yummy and somewhat healthy!! I'm eager to try that.
