Let the Stress Begin?

I just finished posting a new item on Etsy and went through my email. Then it hit me; only 22 days until Christmas!!! I stressed for a second, but then I thought you're being silly. It's funny how you change as the years go by. I didn't sweat anything in my 20's. Then I stressed out turning 30 (now I think "big deal")! And for the earlier part of my thirties I stressed. Now, I think stressing is a waste of energy! Not that I don't stress ocassionally, but not near as much as I approach 40...

Sometimes it's hard, but stop and remind yourself to take a breath and take in the important things that life has to offer. LIFE IS SHORT!
