For Refreshment Only Sundays (FROS) offers a little break from the holiday madness . . .

It’s tough being the Purveyor of All Things Holidayey, as most of us are. It’s difficult finding just the right gift at just the right price. It’s exhausting shopping the sales day after day. It’s frustrating when other relatives casually mention that oh, yes, THEY got CHILD X the thing you mentioned that YOU were going to get them and so now, back to the stores you go . . . Whew! It’s enough to drive a woman straight to the nog.

So today, FROS offers you a little relaxing YOU-TIME.

Sit back, toss that throw blanket over your lap, cuddle your cup of coffee or tea, put your feet up, and let’s just look . . .

Ahhhhhh! Refreshed at last! Bradley Cooper does it for me every time. I even think I– What’s that? You’re still not quite ready to hit the mall yet again? Then scroll back up to the top and ease your soul one more time. In fact, do it over and over until your feet stop aching and you’re ready to charge into that store and finish the tasks at hand.

‘Tis the season to be jolly, people! Let’s get JOLLY! HAPPY FROS!!!!

    I think I’ve warped the iPad screen scrolling back up. Christmas comes early at FROS

    Taking one for the team again Karen. Your courage, your stamina, your utter selflessness just amazes me. Now I can draaaagg my way into those teeming masses bent upon denying me the perfect gift knowing I will prevail over their puny attempts because you gave us Bradley!

    1. Karen Hawkins says:

      Eviqn, I give and give . . . pant, pant. (Heh!) Good luck facing the teeming masses!

      1. evlqn says:

        I am cloaked in the protection that is Bradley, I am safe.

  8. LouisaCornell says:

      Glad we can ‘innoculate’ you a bit from the craziness of the year, Louisa!

  10. Ginger Robertson says:

    Ok Karen you can have Bradley Cooper and I will take one Jim Caviezel. He just rocks my world, cranks my tractor, is peanut butter that goes with my jelly….lol
