If you're a parent or a teacher, I'm sure the anticipation of Christmas combined with a full moon a week before Christmas has your stress level peaking close to catastrophic stroke numbers. Smooth move, Santa...who would've guessed you'd trade in the guidance of the full moon and Rudolph's nose for a GPS and LEDs. Gee thanks, Big Guy. Full moon belongs on Christmas eve, thank you very much!
Makes the hair stand on end. Literally.
Our son's puppy Ryleigh is a crazed nut all the time, but round out the Christmas frenzy with a full moon and she's as nutty as peanut brittle. And she's a dog. I feel for those that must deal with children the week before Christmas, not to mention children subjected to a cycle of the full moon.
day--not the usual one that keeps her employed for another year, but one with a bounty on the Big Guy in the red suit. Between full moon status and the school week coming to a close, she's ready to call in the SWAT team for riot control. Friday couldn't come soon enough.
Must be something in the water. In fact, I'm sure of it. A full moon does funny things to the tide. And Christmas does funny things to pint-sized humans and furry 'fiends'. Mix the two and there's a chemistry experiment gone bad.
Brace yourself. After today, you still have four days before THE BIG DAY. And then comes the after-Christmas sales. I'll be praying for you.
Merry Christmas to you all and may all your dreams come true.
Until next time--Happy Reading,
Susie
