Christmas is only a few weeks
away. So we prepare for the big
day, Googling recipes, and we
get lost in a mountain composed completely of wrapping
and bows, lost keys, children.
The important thing to remember this time of the year is
to RELAX. Yes, you will have
to see great Aunt Bertha on
Christmas and dodge pointed
questions about your seemingly questionable life choices in
her opinion but you still have a
full 14 days to prepare your defenses. This is the last weekend
that you can fully relax before
dealing through Bertha with
extreme grace. Or wine.
If you’re in the mood for a
local mood-relaxer, check out
the vocal stylings of the Atlanta
Boys Choir this weekend at the
Monastery of the Holy Spirit, or
decide if “The Best Christmas
Pageant Ever” really is the greatest ever, put on by the New Depot Players. If you’re more into
an underground scene, Scribes
& Vibes is all about creative expression and is happening this
Saturday in Lithonia. For visions
of Sugarplum Fairies, check out
The Nutcracker this weekend in
Porterdale featuring the Covington Regional Ballet.
If you’re looking a little further afield, The Nutcracker is
also showing at the Fox until
the 28th, and for the little ones
Disney Junior is on tour beginning this weekend at the Cobb
Energy Performing Arts Center.
And remember dear readers –
RELAX.
