Well played 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

I left the elf to my husband last night. This is what I woke up to. The kids cried because 'now we don't have a TV!' 🤣🤦‍♀️ It's a 24hr YouTube video of 'cracked TV screen' 🤣 that even flickers every once in a while. I'm glad we had an all-day event today; they didn't miss the TV until it was time to play while dinner was being made. Now, Marshmallow (the elf) will be bringing us a 'new' TV tomorrow... according to my husband. He plans to clean it nicely and put a bow on it. So, if you need a TV break or a 2-day elf idea, you could steal this. I'm still laughing at it, but acting pi**ed off at the elf for the kids. I told them she needs flying lessons. My husband says he almost made her drunk; he wanted to tape a tiny alcohol bottle in her hand. 🤦‍♀️ Happy Elf days, y'all!

Sometimes it takes a stranger to let the light in 💗

I say it every year!
Stop 🛑 stressing & going into debt for a holiday that is about bringing people together. Trust me your family & friends wouldn’t want you depressed and struggling into the new year!

I’d like to add when you feel like your spiralling out of control, focus on the present moment by using the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique: name 5 things you see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste. This sensory-based exercise helps calm your nervous system and brings you back to the here and now 🩷

This idea is so much fun!

Apparently it's never too late to take that trip 😀
A woman's ashes were placed in a bottle with a note from her daughter, encouraging people to help her travel the world. The ultimate bon voyage!
