Where is December going??
Oh my! The month is flying by.
Typically the day after Thanksgiving, the Christmas decorations are up, the tree has been bought and decorated.
Fast foward to today, 12/3 and the house is bare of Christmas decorations! I am slipping in my old age!
Seriously! It feels like I blinked and here we are in December already. I love, love this time of year and usually can't wait to decorate the house and get ready for a visit from Old Saint Nick. But geez, the days are going by much faster this year. And it doesn't help that by the time I get home from work it is dark and I cannot get into the shed to get the decorations out due to lack of light!
I am going to work from home tomorrow and make sure I get those damn decorations out before dark!

It's the most wonderful time of the year
I know that statement is typically used to express winter/Christmas, but today it truly felt like the most wonderful time of the year.
I was walking to the cafeteria to get lunch and as I was walking the corridor, I was loving the sights of fall. The trees are more bare now as leaves are almost done falling. The sky was a beautiful blue and the weather was absolutely perfect. Sweater weather, but comfy, not too cold.
It was one of those moments where you just have to stop and take it all in. The beauty of it all.
Life is good today!

The Great Communicator
It has been brought to my attention that I am not a great communicator.
At 39 you would think that I would have life all figured out by now, but not a chance!
God bless my husband for being a forgiving and patient human being. I am now aware that when he & I fight, I shut down like the Great Wall of China. I never really knew why I would shut down so hard and honestly didn't always know how to process all the info that was coming in and out of me. I have realized that when we fight, I am so afraid to say the wrong things and make things much worse and afraid that whatever I have said would be the final straw and he would leave. And to be clear, this is not because of anything he has said or done, this is all me and the way I have learned to communicate, or shall I say, not communicate.
I love my husband more than any other I have ever been with. He possesses all those qualities that mean so much to me in a partner. He is the perfect husband for me! And our kids are soo lucky to have him as their father.
And that is exactly why I shut down so hard. I am so afraid of losing him that I put up those walls....to protect myself.
I guess I know what my New Years resolution will be.
Here's to me...in hoping I figure this crap out sooner rather than later.
