well I have a big pile of gifts bought and some wrapping supplies, but cannot seem to make myself wrap the stuff...usually I enjoy this part

we do this gig at my brother's house and he called yesterday to say his wife had surgery on her rotator cuff so would I be prepared to help out, to which I agreed but really don't want to because she will be telling me everything to do and it's hard for me to be gracious in any interaction with her....

wish I could just hire someone to pack up all this crap and deliver it over there with an excuse for why I can't be there...why does it have to turn into this???????

IT'S A TRAP!

A perfectly formed little holiday stress-ball. If you say anything, you're being unreasonable and ruining Christmas. You will be forced to suffer AND to pretend that you're not suffering.

There is no hope. You're D O O O M E D.

Season's greetings,

Nothing worse than dealing with a dictator. Could remind her she needs to rest. Stress doesn't help the body heal itself.
