AAAAAACCCCCCCHHHHHHH!

Okay, if you are a FB friend you will know this is my current status!  My mind is racing.  I put way too much pressure on myself, overthink situations, and well, just do too much!  I am feeling overwhelmed with all the baking I have done, sewing I have done, cardmaking I have done....and well, none of these tasks are completely finished.  I need to just sit down and make my list.  However....I kinda don't want to see the list if you know what I mean.  It could help OR it could make my head spinning worse.  Thank goodness I have all the shopping complete and all of the presents wrapped.  Perfection!  It is one of my very worst traits.  Not that I am perfect by any means, but I have such high expectations I just overdo myself and then bring my loved ones with me on the stressful ride towards my expectations.  It is utterly and ridiculously foolishness.  Bark, bark, bark, nag, nag, nag, sigh, sigh, sigh....  My poor girls last night! 

Father...Come calm this anxious heart and remind me to set my focus on YOU, the Reason for this Season!  In my efforts to show Your loving kindness to others, help me to take *me* out of it and keep it all about You!  Keep my heart and mind focused on the fact it isn't "how much" or "how cute" or "how well" it's all put together.  Thank you Lord!
