31 days to Christmas?!? You’re joking! Where is the time going?? All I keep saying is, “Well, I’ve ordered the turkey!”. As if that is an indicator that I’ve got things under control. Ha Ha Ha. And so to my old mantra, ONE DAY AT A TIME. As soon as I say that to myself, I immediately feel relief. Believe me when I say that any anxiety I may be experiencing has nothing to do with Christmas. I really am…

I’ve always been a bit of a list-maker, and having this countdown mapped out really helps me stay on track. Well, I…
