Christmas Snit

If you are a working mother you may feel just a tiny bit of sympathy for your fellow zombie, errr I mean woman. Christmas brings tons of exta work and pressure. Add to that less sleep and you have a Christmas Snit ready to happen. That is where I am at right now. I forgot 1 VIP gift so I had to buy one on Amazon and pay almost twice what the actual gift cost to have it wrapped and shipped to be at the VIP's house by Chrismas. My husband's solution is to sit and watch Manchester United while drinking bourbon. "Don't be stressed dear! You took care of it!" Bloody right I did. That is just the issue here. I took care of it because I (we as womankind) end up with most of the Christmas duties. Washing up, cleaning, laundry, check writing, appointments, cards, gifts, gift wrapping, keeping up with the kids ever changing Christmas desires, thank yous, laundry, dodging snide MIL comments, cookies, etc..... it goes on and on doesn't it girls? So I say next year I will spend the holidays in Bora Bora....alone. Think that will actually happen? Nah, but maybe, just maybe I will get completely snockered and leave a wine bottle in the neighbor's nativity. :)
