Hey Melissa,

I'm here--for now! (will travel soon!)

My ideas are--hm....the holidays do tend to be
stressful for me starting with Thanksgiving and my
birthday at the end of November....but Thanksgiving
with my mom/dad/siblings/in-laws went beautifully this
year. Birthday on the other hand was stress-city, for
whatever the reason. What I have learned aobutr
managing the holidays is to go for the yummy healthy
stuff first, hot hearty soup and good homemade bread,
tea and hot chocolate, cheeses, nuts, all kinds of
fruit, muffins, olives--mm somebody please stop me!
and not over-do it on the sugar. Keep my expectations
real about how much and when I try to do. Thoroughly
enjoy the friendships and events that do sustain me.
Get out into the sunlight every day whether for a walk
or just sitty on my front porch a fweminutes. ..that's
about it. Oh, yes, and I sit down and write a list of
accomplishements every week, keeps me in a positive
frame of mind. Stayin gin touch with friends. That's
it!
so, What do you do to stay sane for the holidays?

Margaret
