The Pursuit of Perfection Anyone who knows me, knows that I LOVE Christmas. I absolutely believe in Peace on Earth, and Goodwill towards Men. I love the sparkles, and the smells and the sense of childlike wonder. I still have problems falling asleep on Christmas Eve because I’m so excited that Santa is coming!! My problem, if you will, is my impossibly high standards. I can’t just have a tree, I have to have the PERFECT tree. Which is usually obtained after hours of slogging through the tree farm, to find the best tree they have to offer. I can’t just buy presents, I have to find the PERFECT present for everyone on my list. As has been noted, I can’t just make 2 or 3 types of Christmas cookies, I have to make 10 different kinds. I painted my living room, so between last year and this I had to buy all new décor to match. It has to be PERFECT. Of course, my wrapping paper and bows need to coordinate with my tree so it makes a lovely tableau on Christmas morning. Then there is the Beef Wellington I’m making for Christmas dinner because, yanno, let’s just make something as complicated as possible for shits and giggles. It’s quite frankly, exhausting. I am a control freak, so most offers of help are declined, because no one can do it PERFECTLY, like I do. No wonder I usually ring in the New Year feeling sick. Maybe I’m a closet maso? Anyway, I’m just curious if anyone else feels this need to strive for perfection in this or any other area? I never really considered myself a fan of cage training as part of my kink repertoire, however after reading aliljaded’s blog entry, I think I would love to be sent for an “adult time out”, so I literally and figuratively can’t do anything but “be”. Because I can’t sit still for more than 5 minutes at a time before I’m thinking of something else that needs to be done, cleaned, cooked, bedazzled or just tended to. At some pont during the next few days I’ll catch my breath.     |

"Peace on Earth, and Goodwill towards all Men." Yeah, me too. Trouble is they make it difficult when you then have to meet some of them!

You are bedazzling. Anything worth doing is worth overdoing. You're much better than I am. I'm always tinkering. Nothing is ever finished. Merry Christmas, Rayne
