Christmas always seems a little surreal to me. Yes I bought a bunch of gifts. I spent time wrapping those gifts (although each year less and less time is spent on this.) I gave those gifts out. I received gifts. A few decorations were put up although this year a Christmas tree did not make it into the house. Cooked some good food. ATe a lot of good food.
By many standards we had a simple Christmas. But it still seems a little overwhelming.
Questions run through my mind.
What would a totally green Christmas look like? No tree? Gift wrap? Presents? Travel? Just a few special foods?
What will happen when our parents are no longer with us? Will we keep the same traditions? Will we have Christmas Eve with my siblings or will we each start our own traditions with our families? What will we do on Christmas day?
Will we ever have a white Christmas in Colorado or Banff?
When Alex is grown will he choose to come home for Christmas?
What would happen if I didn't give any gifts for a year?
Could I go the rest of my life without buying a purse or make-up?
What size am I going to be next Christmas?
When should I start my diet? Tomorrow or New Year's Day?
I need to go look at cookbooks.
I'm thinking this mind of mine never lets things be simple. I could live in the middle of nowhere with no distractions and my mind would keep it complicated?
