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!
