Ugh. The main reason I hate holidays is indecision. I love everything about the day-being thankful for the gifts in my life, and celebrating the birth of Christ; etc. But my family travels 800 miles across 3 states to get to Minnesota either for Christmas or Thanksgiving yearly, and this year we have rodeo kick-off the very weekend we are going to leave. It really is not fun trying to divide a week between 2 families; the NP child and the GAMER's dad; and a ton of friends. And when you try to plan anything(I am a planner, down to the end!) No one can decide what or where or when they want to do anything. But, mark my words, they will be the first to complain when the plans that we make with others don't mesh with what they FINALLY decide they want to do!
I know I really shouldn't get so annoyed; but there comes a time when I get just seriously irritated with it. I bust my behind trying to make sure that we get time with each and every person that wants to see us when we are up there; and not one person can make an effort to make it any easier, after we traveled 800+ miles with 3+ children, and quite often a pet! It's going to take a lot of organizing, and a lot of prayer to get through this holiday season...If you think of it, say a prayer for my sanity!
