Pamela Lutrell discusses news about holiday stress

This has been the first year that I have felt like I was chasing the holidays from behind as soon as autumn arrived.  It has really ramped up this year.  Some say it is due to Thanksgiving being later on the calendar and some blame Hallmark Movies.  Normally, holiday stress happens, but this year, it seems to have set in earlier.  So, enjoy this read HOW TO BEAT HOLIDAY STRESS from AARP.
