My husband made plans to get me off the farm for my birthday. And then failed to communicate to me that we were having a house guest on the same week. And I have crafting deadlines, farm chores, and life in between. So off I went to clear the guest room, make vegetarian list, pick up sundries for a guest and my own long list. Luckily we were going with friends to the Silver Dollar City so no planning there and I pack light. But our farm was another matter. Our guest was not available to farm sit as she had other engagements keeping her off the farm most of the time. But another friend said she would come over and make sure the fish, rabbits, dogs, cats, poultry and horses were fed. All was set and a snowstorm was expected. I picked up winter storm supplies for my human visitor, our truck and farm feed. We left with a fully prepared farm and secured farm sitter and happy guest. No snow storm came and by the second day all was well. Until my farm sitter came inside the house and surprised our house guest. Oh well you can't prepare for everything. It all worked out, we returned from our adventures, the farm was happy and our guest was on her way back to family with no bad weather. And I am back to crafting, baking and trying to enjoy the holidays.
I finally bought a light/lamp used for light therapy. I use it most times when I am on the computer or indoors sewing. I have to say my husband noticed a more positive me this holiday. So it must be helping stem my holiday gloom.
