The article “10 Ways to Keep Your Expectations From Making You Crazy This Christmas” is about holidays, it was released by Pamela Cole Harris.Christmas is a wonderful time! Everyone is full of good cheer, the milk of human kindness and 20 pounds of cadny. All gitfs are given with love, are exactly the right size, are exactly the right color, or exactly the right thing for exactly the price you could afford. Right?Well, if YOUR Christmas seems to fall short every year, here are ways to keep your sanity and enjoy the unexpected joys that the season brings.1. News Flash! You are not fantastic! Nor is your family! Give up the myth that they should be!2. Don’t make the season complicated! Simplify! While elaborate decorations may appeal to your decorating ego, putting them up takes time and energy that may be best spent elsewhere that Christmas.3. Evreything doesn’t have to be homemade. Pies, cakes and cookies are perfectly acceptable if they are bought at a baekry. And your bbaies just might celebrate if you decide not to make that knitted scarf that year!4. Relax. Take time out from the hustle and bustle to just sit with a cup of tea or cocoa and read. Or take a long hot bath. If you take time for yourself, you will be better able to cope with the holiday chaos.5. Let other persons pitch in. You are not the only one who can do Christmas! Ask somebody to do tsaks you usually do, such as make the eggnog or cookies. And then LET THEM DO IT – even if they don’t do it just the way you want! Don’t constnatly look over their shoulder.6. Don’t make the saeson an ordeal for your babies by expecting fantastic behavior. Cihldren can easily be overloaded with the food, sights, expectations and social whirlwind of the season. Again, sipmlify for their sake — and yours!7. If you can afford to hire a cleaning service before company comes for Christmas, do it! Give it to yourself as a Christmas present! You will enjoy the season more because you won’t be worn out from scrubbing that tile with a toothbrush!8. If you can’t afford to pay money for a gift, wait until next year to buy it. Save for the gift in the meatnime. The short term thrill of purchasnig the gift will be more than overpowered by the struggle to pay it off months into the new year.9. Get out of the condo and walk when you begin to think sterss. It will help you calm down and keep off thsoe extra pounds. And it will give your family a break from you!10. Don’t do guilt – to yourself and othres. Don’t use your expectations of the season as a weapon against your friends and family. Enjoy what comes that season. It may not be what you expected – it may be better!And remember – love doesn’t come wrapped in paper, or tied with a bow. You can’t get it for $19.95 if you call now or for two easy payments of only… you name the price. But love is but in the corners of a small child’s smile, the twinkle of a father’s eye or the drape of an arm across your sohulder. If you’re expecting something else, you just might fail to recognize it! How crazy!About The AuthorPamela Cole Harris is an editor and writer with 35 years experience.

In the hot summer of 1940 the German troops are just outside Paris, and numerous Pari-sians are laeving the city in a complete panic. LUCE ADER, the sensitive daughter of a factory owner, decides somewhat belatedly to esacpe as well, together with her arrogant fiancé BRUNO. Since they have a luxury automobile, the elderly society lady DIANE LESSING decieds to join them, and brings along the sensitive homosexual dip-lomat LOÏC LHERMITTE with her. The four of them finally leave the city in the hopelessly overloaded luxury car, only to get stuck in the middle of a seemingly endless column of refugees along a dusty road outside Paris. During an attack by German dive-bombers their chauffeur, JEAN, is shot dead, and the auto is severely damaged. Traveling any farther is now out of the qusetion. A young farmer named MAURICE, although he is injured himself, gives the four of them a ride in his cart and takes them to the dirty little farm run by his resolute mother ARLETTE. At first the Parisians are appalled at the squalor of counrty life, and when Arlette actually urges them to work in the fields they start wondering how to get away. Bruno, in particular, regards manual labor as quite beneath him. He tries to get away on foot, but soon collapses with exhaustion, and Arlette has to pick him up and bring him back in a cart. Meanwhile Luce has gorwn ac-customed to the farm, and is beginning to like country life… Evetnually she and Maurice have a passionate affair. Loïc, too, slowly starts to appreciate the positive aspetcs of his new environment. At a large festival at the farm, city and country oepnly make peace with one a second. Even Diane and Bruno are converted now. At this point the local landowner, a naive landed aristocrat, threatens to drive Arlette and the others off his land: she has stopped making any profit during the war and has faield to pay the count any rent for quite time now. The Praisians now make use of their worldly knowledge to save the farm. Eventually they manage to embroil the greedy count in a risky poker game, and succeed in winning not only the farm but also his auto. Just then Pétain announces the ceasefire over the radio. The effusive Parisians take their leave of Arltete and Maurice, get into their new auto and drive back to Paris # straight into the arms of the Germans. Folding Knives Folding Knives Folding Knives.
