In Case You Weren't Stressed Out Enough...



What?!!!

After reading that little tidbit of information, did you begin feeling like this...






Or more like this...







When you hear those two little words...
Merry Christmas

Do you really hear---Merry Stressmas?


Does this sound more familiar...







Or this???









Is this more your holiday style...





Or this...







Do any of the following spark your interest?












Do you experience a sudden sense of relief (and extreme guilt for feeling the relief) when you look at the following...



And more importantly...could YOU be a suspect?



If so, you are advised to immediately go to the website Saving our Christmas Sanity ~ Saving Frazzled Women One Christmas at a Time! and take the following test...





(Click on it)
What did you score?



If you scored above 50 (like me) you are in desperate need of some remedial Christmas help and the website is highly recommended. It is finally time to come out of denial and begin once again to feel the jolliness of the season. If on the other hand, you scored very low, then please leave a comment and tell the rest of us what medication you are on!



And by the way, keep in mind...




...is not to be taken literally. However IF you do feel the need for a pair of these ↓ (boxing gloves)... you are advised to immediately return to the website...or seriously consider an extended vacation for approximately 100 days.

AND...

Merry Christmas in 100 days!!!


Ho Ho Ho!!!

I guess I must like Christmas - I scored a 14. About the only thing that stresses me out about Christmas is that there is snow and cold while I am trying to get ready! Thanks for reminding me that winter is coming, bleh!!

Oh, I can't wait!!!!!!!!Just listening to the music on your blog makes me feel giddy! I think I need some hot chocolate.....

I scored an 18 out of 60. I guess I'm a kid at heart and it's the spirit of Christmas. It's not about the gifts so much as it is the reason for the season that excites me.:) Oh, and the music.

RoeH said...

Let's just say I didn't score well. It's hard to get excited about Christmas when it's 99 degrees then. I want C.O.L.D. and nippy at that time of year. Oh .. loved the cartoon. I worked in elementary school offices and you couldn't even whisper the word. Sickening!

Dawn said...

Only 100 days?? How exciting! I scored a 22 out of 60, and it says that I handle the stress of Christmas pretty well. We will see how I feel in 101 days, because this is the first year that I am hosting both Thanksgiving and Christmas. ;-)

Chelsea said...

I scored 1! I love Christmas! This year the gift giving will be smaller due to budget and new baby etc. But hanging out with family is what I live for! That's when we can stay up late and play games and get crazy. Yay!!!

The Hoyt Family said...

Oh I love it!! I love listening to the music. I am so glad you posted this I just cant wait...And today with it being dark and cloudy and only 60 outside it even feels like it getting closer.. Yeah!!

NO WAY!!! O.K. now I'm starting to get stressed. Thanks for the reminder.
However I'm committed to stressing out from now through the end of October. I'll do it all now so that MAYBE I can actually enjoy Christmas this year.

Amy Plumb said...

I'm so bad this year I want to tell the two families no Christmas this year. We can do a dinner get together but no gift exchange, lets remember what Christmas is really all about.

Kelli said...

one thing we try to do is watch a christmas movie each night of december until christmas. It makes us all sit down and relax every night. Or atleast the nights we arent running crazy. hehe

LarryG said...

Christmas - it's wonderful.
i get a bit stressed though.

Jen said...

Are you serious! Christmas music! Don't you know that's not allowed until after Thanksgiving! At least until after Halloween! Seriously, I love Christmas and though I do get stressed, it's a great time of year!

Jodi said...

Okay I have to confess this music is making even me all excited too! And all your comments has also made me realize I need to be less stressed about it and just ENJOY it more!!!!

Jodi said...

Now...IF we can just get them to WAIT on the music until AFTER Thanksgiving so it KEEPS us excited instead of getting tired of it!!!

Mel said...

That was fun. I scored an 11. I love Christmas and the older I get the more I appreciate the true meaning and care less about all of the other stuff. I've already started my shopping but of course it's all for my cute grandson and nobody else! Merry Christmas!

Really, 100 days? Holy cow, I better get busy!

Karen said...

Thanks for the reminder I might have forgotton about it all together this year!! I only have 50 days to get my misisonary ready!!

Since reading this post yesterday I've been consumed with thoughts of the holidays. CONSUMED to the point where I'm debating pulling out the music as well. But that would put me over the edge of being consumed to just being a bit wonkey.

I was wondering if you would kindly share the code to your darling Christmas Countdown Widget. I can't find anything half as cute on the internet so I'm obviously coveting yours.

Jodi said...

Fawndear---
Happy to share! Here is the code:
