Christmas Marathon

The race is on! We have hit the second marker (family party and gift exchange), the first one being putting up the Christmas tree (we ran swiftly by that one last week). We are carburating on Chrsitmas cookies. We still have cards to mail and a few gifts to buy but the finish line is in sight. Still hoping Santa will bring me a new job for Christmas (I've been decent this year maybe I deserve that).
We're in it for the long run. The season isn't over until the last party, the last eggnog and the never-achieved New Year's resolutions.
We have left a few competitors behind - clearly ill-prepared. They look tired, are in a shopping frenzy and their house is a mess. We're just tired with a messy house. Two out of three is good at this stage. I have an edge because I don't need to go to any office party - nothing beats working from home!
