You made the lists and checked them twice, and wrapped all the gifts for those who have been nice. You've decorated the house, mailed holiday cards, done all of your shopping, now that wasn't too hard. You have cooked 'n baked your candies and sweets, prepared for visitors and friends that you'll meet, December's arrived, you've worked as hard as an elf, Now's the time to ease stress and care for your self. Take the kids to the grandparents, if its fun that they seek, or have a sitter watch them a day or two each week. Spend some time at a spa, a salon or your gym, go golf, relax ,build some peace within. There's always a little shopping and cooking to do, but that's OK if you booked some free time for you.
