I’ve been feeling blue lately…the stress of selling our house and not really knowing where we will live next I think has gotten to me a little this season of Joy and Peace. My “sense of place” is all out of whack…I’m missing this piece and then missing the Peace that comes from that. Today, talking to my therapist mom on the phone she told me about a funny thing she saw recently, “Christmas Carols for the Mentally Ill.” Bear in mind, we are not making fun of mentally ill people….I know and love several mentally ill people…but I’m sorry, this made me laugh and I needed that at this moment so here it is for your enjoyment. I found this by Google on John Fry’s website.I think I’m allowed to say I like the one for ADHD the best…my DH is diagnosed and medicated for this disorder….
Christmas Carols for the Mentally Ill
Schizophrenia — Do You Hear What I Hear?
Multiple Personality Disorder — We Three Kings Disoriented Are
Dementia — I Think I’ll Be Home for Christmas
Narcissistic — Hark the Herald Angels Sing About Me
Manic — Deck the Halls and Walls and House and Lawn and Streets and Stores and Office and Town and Cars and Buses
and Trucks and Trees and . ..
Paranoid — Santa Claus is Coming to Town to Get Me
Borderline Personality Disorder — Thoughts of Roasting on an Open Fire
Personality Disorder — You Better Watch Out, I’m Gonna Cry, I’m Gonna Pout, Maybe I’ll Tell You Why
Attention Deficit Disorder — Silent Night, Holy OOOOOOOOh look at the Froggy, can I have chocolate, why is France so far away?
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder — Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bell …

Roflmao Mrs. You have to be able to poke a little fun and ligthen up today. We are too serious! I think I like the Manic one the best.
Chill out have a glass of mulled wine, eat some truffles and put your feet up and hugs your kids. Sending you a hug and some good cheer!

Love it! I am the ADD and OCD-lol! I hope everything gets better. I am blue too-because of my “child” being sick-my dog Patch. Come visit me sometime at my blog.
Good Luck!
WOOF!

This is funny, we all need to laugh especially when there are so many changes perhaps coming at Christmas or a special Holiday.. So lets all get a Margarita or Cosmos or a virgin drink and sing along.. LOL!

LOL MM – these are hysterical. Sorry you feel out of place this time of year – hopefully that will change soon.
Merry Christmas.

Mrs, those are hilarious! I do wonder, though, if sometimes God allows to feel “out of place” so that we can be reminded that our place is with Him? Just a random musing for this Christmas day …

Just saw this today – I too love the ADHD one (probably since I have ADD and can so relate to it!)
Peace and a Happy 2008 to you and yours, Mrs.
