Holiday Prep

Preparing for the holidays. I love buying and wrapping presents to give. But to be honest, everything thing that goes with the season creates a lot of stress and anxiety.

Practicing and taking part in the Advent season is the number one thing that helps me stay calm(er), and therefore benefits everyone else around me. Last year I had updated my own Journey to Christmas study, but much of last year I am still recovering from, so this year I am going to go through honest advent, by Scott Erickson. I originally purchased the book for our library shelves. There had been some requests for similar studies and after reading the introduction of this one, honest advent is going to be a lovely and thought-provoking option for patrons.
