Have you aired your grievances yet? Displayed your Feats of Strength?

I have not yet wrestled my husband to the ground yet...he's been out doing some last minute shopping. But my pole is up and I've already made a few complaints to my family today.

Happy Festivus everyone!

What can I do next?

I was instructed to serve Pizza and Pepsi for Festivus. For the adults, it's vodka. Feats of strength may happen after dh gets home, but the Airing of Grievances usually takes too much time, so we just have a big group hug and are done with it. Off to the store for vodka and pizza...

Happy Festivus everyone!

Because, I'd never heard of this I googled it and for others who don't know the holiday here's a web site. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festivus

I can't imagine what good would come for airing grievances. In our family they'd have to be made up and outrageous. Maybe that's the idea?

I aired my grievances! Hubby and I are both feeling unwell. We have body aches and are just exhausted. I started an online bakery and got some orders that are due tomorrow. I'm baking and he's snoring on the couch. I kicked him into the bedroom so I didn't have to hear him as I put the finishing touches on the cake pops and box everything to prepare for delivery.

Men, sheesh!

Feats of strength are next. Can I deliver everything and still make it home?!

Happy Festivus! Thanks for reminding me that I need to wrestle my husband to the ground the minute he walks in with the BBQ he's picking up right now! I've been randomly airing grievances all day ;-)
