Christmas is officially over.

My most dreaded days of the year has come and gone and…it wasn’t really all that bad.

Normally, in the days leading up to Christmas, I am filled with anxiety and nervousness.  I am sad that my Mom isn’t alive, and irritated that I have to interact with people who are still around.  All I really want to do is bury my head under the covers and not open my eyes until boxing day.

But I didn’t really feel any of that this year.

I just went with it.  I didn’t let the little things bother me and I enjoyed the moments for what they were.

I ate a lot (good riddance, gallbladder!), I gave and received some nice gifts, and I laughed.

A lot.

And now I don’t have to think about it again for another year.

What more could you ask for?

How was your Christmas?
