I love Christmas shopping. It’s a time of joy and enjoying family, but stressful shoppers may get in your way.
As my December calendar has filled up, I’ve discovered I’ve eaten too much and spent money I should have saved. I’ve made lists, marked things off, and ran around like a chicken with its head cut off. Or like a crazy woman in need of one more gift.
I keep going back to the store for additional wrapping paper, tape, ingredients for cookies, or something I’ve forgotten.
To make things worse, I’m faced with an onslaught of congested roads and long lines. The slow drivers consistently pull in front of me, and when I show kindness by allowing a merging car onto the road, another ten people think they can pull out too.
