Christmas Blues
Dec. 7th, 2012 06:34 pmNovember and December are probably my least favorite months out of the year. There are a few reasons for this:
1. Trying to pick out(or make) the right holiday gifts is very stressful.
2. I feel lonelier at Christmas than any other time of year.
3. Everyone always seems to get colds/ flu/ other illnesses this time of year.
4. The holidays make me think about people I miss, whether I've lost them to dealth or simply life's circumstances.
I'm often left with the feeling that I want to sleep through the last two months of the year. There are several things that make them more bearable, though.
1. There is a lot of great holiday fic around this time that kindles some holiday feeling in my Scrooge-like little heart
2. Spending time with my nephews and my youngest cousin. Hearing them laugh and smile makes me happier than anything else on Earth.
3. Hot tea and comfort food.
4. Fluffy blankets when it gets cold.
I'm feeling a little low right now. I'm trying to work on a few fics and suffering some major doubts about my abilities to write them. It's slow going but I pray I'll have them done in time. I just want to burrow somewhere and not come out till December is done.
