Families & Holidays

I am just about to get off of work and drive to my family's house for dinner. I spend Sundays at my parent's house visiting and doing laundry (the dryers in my appartment complex suck!). I love my family dearly, but it always gets a little stressful during the holidays, especially since I have gotten married. It is so hard to juggle two different families with two different ways of life. My family is very organized and my husband's family is very last minute. So inevitably my husband and I have many stressful days leading up to any holiday. What to do? Both my husband and I are afraid that this will be the norm for all future holidays. Sigh. I guess that is life! Families can be so wonderful and so stressful at the same time! Well, lets look on the bright side, it is better to be wanted be too many people all at the same time then to be rejected by the people who should love us the most in this world. There is always a silver lining.
