Hey everyone! It’s December! You know what that means!
The most famous holiday is here: CHRISTMAS! And Hanukkah. And Kwanzaa. And-
Santa Claus (with a grinning Krampus next to him): It’s Christmas. And only Christmas. Or does someone want to be beaten up by my friend here?
*gulp!* Okaaayyy… yeah. Christmas…
But as many people say that this is the “most wonderful time of the year”, old Santa Claus always hidesthe worse parts of Christmas: what leads up to it.
Which is usually boatloads of stress, weighing about 19 elephants per boatload! Yaaaaay 🙂 (JOKE)
But what is Christmas doing that is making people stressed? Well, there are a bunch of tasks that Christmas looooves doing to people including:
ok ok geez
- Baking Christmas cookies
- Getting ingredients for the cookies in the first place
- Finding a tree to cut down and decorate in the first place (optional)
- One word (with five words in parentheses): Mistletoe (if you celebrate this tradition)
- Finding the perfect Christmas special to watch on the special day (for me, it’s between A Charlie Brown Christmas and A Garfield Christmas)
- Praying that your power won’t go out like last year (oh would you LOOK AT THAT-)
- And lastly, dealing with fire, whether it’s lighting candles or a whole log of wood.
Yeesh, Santa Claus wants us to work harder than he imagined!
Happy Holidays!
