I have a solution for the Christmas gift box. Use the tools that are available to you- in this case am electronic calendar. I keep an event in my phone for November 15th that includes anything I need to do around Christmas time but don't want to think about until then. This has made gift buying so much easier because anytime I think of something that a family member might enjoy I add it to the event for future reference. No more last minute scramble to find gifts that are sub par!

It's not right feeling guilty for eating what you felt like, especially after taking a nice walk! what's a demerit is feeling guilty for eating, which might lead or encourage eating disorders

I believe there is a similar version of this story of Picasso sitting in a cafe where 2 ladies ask to buy the napkin that he is drawing on. He quotes a huge amount and the ladies are shocked. and Picasso responds that I have been at it for over 30 / 60 years.

Absolutely loved your daughter, you and your sister all together. Made me nostalgic for the days my grandma, my mom, my sister and me were all in the same room.. #amazingmoments.. we all live in different states now and my grandmother passed away a couple months before my seven years old daughter was born... so thank you for the blast from the past memories!!!
