Holiday Blues

I've got the holiday blues. I get them every year, but this year is worse I think. This year I'm already ready to take down the decorations - and it's the day after Christmas. I'm tapped out emotionally. Richard's in a very deep valley and it's affecting the whole family.

I'm grateful for those who helped us make Christmas good this year. The boys liked their presents and we're picking up the Wii today, so it'll be a whole new Christmas morning again for them. However...I just want to stay in bed. I guess I feel like I have to be everything to everyone in the house in the evenings so during the day I just don't have the energy (physical, mental, or emotional) to get out and do anything. I want my energy back. I want my smile back. I want my husband back.

Ok...this is my day to whine. I'm giving myself one. One day. Maybe just one morning because the kitchen is completely trashed from Christmas yesterday. One morning. Two more hours to just sit and rest and read and play games and watch TV. Then it's kitchen, chores and errands. Go ahead...time me.
