~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I had a really awful reading week last week, not really a reading slump, more of a full life slump.  My stress level has been so high the past several months that I just finally hit that wall. And boy did I hit it hard.  I haven't actually picked up a book in nearly 5 days. I didn't even watch any TV or color or create any cards, usually all the things I do other than reading when stress gets too high.  I do feel myself recovering a little bit and I have been getting a lot accomplished which helps with my anxiety and stress levels. 

Also Christmas is tomorrow! So one of my major stressors will be over and done with soon. Seeing Munchkin so excited and believing in the magic makes it all worth it in the end.


I hope you all have a very magical holiday season!
