Reflection of Memories
01 Dec

Ready or Not . . .

Tesa Jones Blog 0 22

After two weeks of traveling, book signings and book clubs, I am HOME.  It was an exciting, successful and event-packed adventure.  I loved being with family for Thanksgiving and truly enjoyed seeing “old fans” and meeting so many “new fans” at the Barnes & Noble and other book events!   Your enthusiasm and support inspire me.  Thank you!

As I sit in my comfy Lazy-Boy chair sipping on my morning coffee, I realize I have not written on my BLOG for two Wednesdays!  I also realize I have not focused on Christmas, decorated my house, addressed my Christmas cards or bought a single present for my five adorable grandchildren.

Is anyone else in this “boat” with me — or am I floating alone in this dilemma?

I love, love, LOVE Christmas.  My normal pattern is to have my gifts purchased, wrapped and hidden in the closest by the end of the Thanksgiving Weekend so I can relax, enjoy the festivities with family & friends and buy a few additional gifts at my leisure during the hectic December shopping season.  Obviously, I am not following my typical routine!  In fact, I am close to panic mode.  Any suggestions?

What do you do when life gets chaotic?

Normally, I exercise; however, I am trying to figure out how to include that in my busy schedule.  I suppose the first thing I should do is finish my coffee, get out of my Lazy-boy chair and start checking some of those “things” off of my “to-do list.”

As we head into the joyous Christmas season . . . I hope to take the same advice that I am going to give you . . .  relax, savor the moment and enjoy the PEOPLE in your life.  If you are not able to be with family — find some friends  or neighbors who are also alone — create an event together — reach out to people who are in need of warm hugs and companionship.  In my humble opinion — these are the most rewarding moments of the season.

God bless you and wrap you with a peaceful heart.
