The Family Get-Together
The doorbell rings. You check the calendar, then obsessively recheck. No. It can’t be. Didn’t we just have one of these? You look for someplace to hide, then realize it’s futile.
They know where you live.
The doorbell sounds another death chime. You walk slowly, steps heavy, heart constricted. You pause, take a steadying breath, and grip the doorknob for strength. The door swings open to reveal your worst fear.
It’s your family.
Yes, another holiday has arrived and your relatives, young, old and insane, have descended upon you for a good, old-fashioned “get-together." Sound ominously familiar?
If this scenario fills you with dread, don’t sweat it. Pour yourself a cold one and take some tips from those who have been there on how to deal with the stress of the family gathering, and no, it doesn’t include cooking and eating them.
According to thelifenetwork.ca, the number one cause of stress during a holiday season is trying to fit too much work into too few hours, when even the most anal among us may not be able to meet tight deadlines. Some of their tips for running a smoother show include the most anal activity of all: list-making!
Apparently it’s much easier to keep track of what needs to be done, and what has been accomplished, if you have a list to consult. Who knew?
