I'm sorry, Kelly. I spent 12 years in retail management (still always on the sales floor and dealing with customers).. I know how awful this time of year is. Take a deep breath. It'll be over soon.1 -

Yes it is for friends news feed, not for ads. Frustrating it is!1

Had my proposal for presentation at a conference denied. Am I eating all my sad, crushed, heartbroken, destroyed feels? NO! NO I AM NOT!
... I might be drinking them though.3 -

One day and then let it go. Don't sabotage your progress, submit somewhere else.0 -
I got almost 3000 steps wrapping gifts and taking them to the tree. Wrap one, carry it, come back. I have three things inside to wrap and I am over it for the moment.1

I'm super exciting over here too. I went to bed at 7:45 the past 2 nights. And no, I'm not sick.
I have started to do that too in nights that I don't ride. But then I'm up around 1 for hours listening to YouTube videos rather than being productive.1 -

Welcome to the club. Glasses are great. I need mine most of the time. They hide the bags under my eyes caused by lack of sleep, so I'm calling it a win!4 -

I've never worked retail, but I used to waitress, especially functions, and boy did that sap the fun out if Christmas for me! And you never get tips at Christmas party functions unless you work the cloakroom until 3am. I was 16 so not allowed to do this, but sometimes they let me when the main manager was off!0 -

I'm almost jealous! The only reason I stay up until 10pm is it's the only kid free time I get to achieve anything. Yesterday evening I made an extension for their bedroom curtains to stop a draft coming through. Now who's living the most exciting life?!0 -
Ellie is walking!12

Confession:
Did you ever crave alone time so much (real, not on call, alone time - not trying to relax while the baby might wake at any moment), that while you were chopping up veggies for dinner you thought, 'if I slip and slice my finger, I could sit in a&e for 4 hours, totally uninterrupted and ignored, waiting for somebody to give me a couple of stitches. I'd bring a book and some chocolate and I'd quietly sit anywhere they put me.
Don't worry, I'm not going to actually do it. But the thought has passed my mind more than once...4 -
Yay for Ellie walking!!!!
And I'm sure all (or most) moms/dads have thought up similar scenarios. I hope you get uninterrupted alone time soon. #1 on your Christmas wish list!!1 -

Why, yes, yes I have. It also crossed my mind this week that if I fell in the ice and broke my ankle, I could stay in bed for a week and people would have to wait on me. It would not be worth it in the end.1 -

When my job was at its worst and I was working 20 hours a day and getting beat up all the time, I used to pray to be in a car accident. A week or 2 in the hospital where no one could get to me and no one would tell at me for not getting things done. This sometimes still crosses my mind.2 -

Moms deserve a break too. Though sitting in the ER does not sound like much of one!
Leave hubby with the kiddos once and a while and go out for a meal or a movie or something else you find relaxing!2 -

Or throw them out of the house
I sent mine out for dinner on Friday because I didn't want to eat. I took a hot bath and was asleep when they got home.2 -
I'm glad I'm not the only one, I thought I was crazy! Maybe we're all a bit crazy.0

I feel it's a mixture of both the customers & associates.0 -
Yay, Ellie!
Way to go Ellie!0 -

I am so sorry, Kelly. It's unfortunate that what should be a peaceful, family time turns so many people into greedy, unkind snots.0 -

The last 5 years when I worked in a different part of the hospital, I literally didn't stop moving for 8 hours & multi tasked all day & had one dinner break around 8 or 9 pm(shift was 3-11:30 pm) I was so stressed out all the time, I wished I would develop a heart problem so I can be a patient & not work for a while2 -
no judgement? ok I really dislike Christmas & always signed up to work. I don't like anything about it, the songs, the lights, etc. wish I could skip it & I don't buy gifts, but this year our grand kids picked adult names to get them a gift, so we have 2 gifts to buy, ugh. It's not a religious thing as I'm a christian, It just seems to be all about $ and gift giving. I am glad that the world celebrates it though. I'll be glad when it's over3
