I have a few more to shop for. Nothing like shopping the last minute. Scrambling around for the perfect or semi-perfect gift. I struggle to the men in my family to buy them something every year. Their gifts tend to be expensive and if I get something small and simple it gets push aside. So I usually give food to those men. Since I can't buy a fancy tool or new tech gift. Since I have down in recovery I have been giving my husband the controls on the decorating. At first I was really upset because this is my favorite time of year for decorating.

These three people make me the most happy any time of day. The last few weeks have been hard with recovery and all. The recovery process has been good not to many complications but the slowing down and taking time for me is something I didn't do before. I have been an over achiever my whole life, I'm a first born. I don't like when my family is searching for food for a snack, I like to have a clean clean house, clean clothes and I want to serve them because I love them. Sometimes I forget me and think of them. My husband has given me the gift of time. Time to heal, time for me and the time he takes to make sure the household is running smoothly. I really appreciate it. There is more healing but I couldn't be feeling so good without his help for sure.
