Christmas Magic

I am needing some Christmas magic these days.

I have lost a bit of my sparkle. I don't even mean with scrapbooking, but just with myself in general. Out of sorts, feeling moody, I am just not myself. Ever go through this?

You imagine yourself being the best you...but can't seem to bring it to fruition. I think of myself running, strong, fit...yet I haven't done anything healthy for my body in a long while. I want to laugh with my kids, have patience, yet I am short and sometimes overwhelmed. My intentions aren't coming across the way I would like. I know I will find my way, but the "I've fallen and I can't get up" phase is tough.

I guess it makes me feel better to share it. Acknowledge it. Forgive it. Even embrace it because phases like this ultimately make you grow.

So, I would love some Christmas magic right now!

Speaking of the big guy, here is a layout about how my little guy finally enjoyed Santa last year!





I think I will spend the next few days going to bed early or walking around with my IPOD in hopes of recharging. I think I will add me to my Christmas list this year.

Do you think Santa is listening?

  1. i find that sleep and music help too :D

    funks are hard, esp when you don't have a reason for them - it's what holly golightly would call "the mean reds" (ps - she'd go to Tiffany's LOL)t

  5. Beautiful page - wow the details I just love the creativity you bring to a page...

    I'm right there with you this year. I keep saying I just feel "blah". Little kids have a way of bringing you back from the funk at this time of year - seeing the magic from their eyes brings brightness to the day.

    Take care of yourself
