beauflow, I hope you do get some good self care in.

I have been feeling physically taxed lately. I've been feeling sore, dragging butt, not waking up to the alarm, and then waking up barely able to lift my head for a good while. I've been running around town doing more errands than is good for me. I have these projects planned that I'm now becoming intimidated by, and yet, instead of resolving to cut down on them, I add another.

I'm, personally, not going to exchange Christmas presents with many people this year. My husband will, but he usually does his own shopping. My buying is almost done. But then my sister said she bought something for me as a "couldn't resist" purchase. She wrote that I need not reciprocate, but I'll at least buy her flowers. Maybe I'll create a flower arrangement for her.
Is it just everything you are/plan to do making you feel this way, or is it sickness, mood? It's a tough time of year. We only give Christmas gifts to our daughter and one to each of our nieces & nephews (which we have 5 to buy for, which adds up). My sisters & I don't exchange. We don't exchange with our parents. When we can afford it, we buy something for my grandmother, such as chocolates she likes but cannot afford on a fixed budget, but this year, I don't think we can even do that. H & I don't even exchange gifts now, money is so tight.
