It’s Friday! The day after Christmas should be a federally protected holiday dedicated to doing absolutely nothing. The decorations are still up, the leftovers are still good, and my brain is officially closed for business. No plans, no errands, no projects—just sweatpants, leftover pie, and a whole lot of nothing. If today has a purpose, it’s to kick back and relax.

And that’s exactly what I have planed.

It’s Thursday. Hey everyone—just wanted to take a moment to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

We’re heading over to my parents’ place today for Christmas dinner, then later we’ll be back at our house to spend some time with my girlfriend’s kids.

We did the full holiday tour yesterday—Christmas Eve during the day with her side of the family, then Christmas Eve night with mine. It was great seeing everyone, but after tonight I’ll definitely be ready for some quiet time to kick back, relax, and do absolutely nothing.

Have a nice Christmas everyone.

It’s Wednesday. Well, here we go—it’s Christmas Eve! This is the day when “I’ve still got time” officially turns into panic, denial, and reckless decision-making. Every minute that ticks by feels louder, every store closes sooner than expected, and suddenly you’re trying to convince yourself that gift cards are thoughtful, not desperate. The pressure is real, the options are dwindling, and somewhere in the back of your mind a tiny voice is screaming that next year you’ll get your Christmas shopping done before Thanksgiving.

Knowing full well you absolutely won’t.
