Waking up on the RIGHT side of the bed...

Waking up today with a happy outlook and feeling “It’s Christmas” – the season to be happy gives me motivation! I originally subconsciously made plans to do absolutely nothing today, probably not even get out of my comfy pjs and watch Breakfast at Tiffany's and the rest of my Audrey Hepburn collection, but now – I’m driven to clean and organize and get through the laundry and shower and get out to the stores and be ready to celebrate dad’s birthday on a minute’s notice! It’s white and pretty and sparkly outside! It’s bright! The roads are clear. There’s Christmas in the air!
It gets so easy to get bogged down with work and chores and complaints. I’m an expert whiner. However, today – I’m going to look at LIVING and LIFE and remember that I have so much to be thankful for! I LOVE Christmas. I love shopping and giving and although my list isn’t as quite as ‘giving’ as in the past because we have a new house and a daughter in college, we HAVE a new house and a daughter in college – so SMILE!
Santa must’ve slipped something perky in my tea cup this morning – what differentiates the usual weekend of waking up feeling tired and not be motivated to do anything besides rest vs. waking up Saturday morning bursting with Christmas cheer and driven to tackle the world full force? I don’t know, but I’m going with it! Happy day to YOU too! I hope you wake up energized with a happy face and a giving spirit!
