I don’t fret often but when I do it is a mega-fret. What a waste of time and energy; it does nothing to change anything, makes me cranky, and ruins my day. This time of year can be a challenge to stay fret-free but I am determined to have a fret-less holiday season. It may take a lot of willpower, ignoring the over the top holiday hype, and the occasional forced smile but I’m going to do it! I am also going to stock up on chocolate…and wine. 😉

I hope that plan evolves and works well for you.
Me, too. The chocolate and wine will help.
Great combination
We don’t have fret in our holidays anymore. We don’t worry about the calories either. It’s one day and then we move on. It’s all good.
Have a fabulous day and weekend. ♥
Good for you! I don’t exactly worry about calories but there are days I hate the scale.
Great plan, Patricia, especially loading up on chocolate and wine. 🍷
Yep, chocolate and wine make fretting a breeze.
I LOVE this–a “fret-less” holiday season sounds perfect to me…and I think I might just have one!! 🙂 ‘Course, it’s easy to do when you’re alone and don’t have to plan for “people” to be part of it 🙂
I can’t say I plan anything anymore. These days life just happens and it’s good even with the occasional fret.
I love your plan to stay fret-free. We’re going to have a parade of relatives coming to visit over the next two weeks. I keep telling myself that I must not worry. It’s a hard habit to break.
A parade of relatives sounds lovely. Hope the visiting family put your worries to rest.
Good plan! 🙂
Well, it’s a plan…of sorts. BTW I loved your post today! Thank you for the encouragement. I copied it to put in my journal.
