Christmas Fruits

At work there are generally two types of bad situations. One is when you don’t have anything to do and the other is when you have too much to do and you just can’t get started. Now imagine any of those situations in December, with the weight of your Christmas shopping list crushing you. If you’re anything like me you’ll be staring at a blank screen and just wondering why on earth you got out of bed. The answer is obvious; you kept dreaming your Christmas gifts were chasing you.

My Christmas nightmares start when thanksgiving ends. I think I could do about ten sequels to ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’. I’m chased by wrapping paper and scissors alike, when I have my routine falling dream, there is a festive background instead of the sky. There is only one way to make these nightmares disappear, I have to woman-up and get down to buying my Christmas Holiday Gifts. I know that once I get into my Christmas Shopping mood, the shopping will be done in mere days. The problem is getting into the mood. For me it starts with finding a really great gift. During my search for unique Christmas gifts, the second I find something really extraordinary the Christmas sprit, shopping or otherwise, fills me. I am immediately inspired and I zero-in on the best deals with in miles. I find the best Christmas gift baskets and Christmas ornaments at great prices. I find a nice dress for the Christmas party and even better shoes to go with it. Then I find something for my mom and most importantly my boyfriend. It’s all about getting inspired.
