Learning to combine ideas into more complex sentences is an important skill in writing. There are many ways to do this--many possible bonus points! Try to combine the following three sentences.
Sentence 1: The holiday season can be one of high expectations and increased stress.
Sentence 2: People want the season to be perfect, peaceful, and happy.
Sentence 3: The reality often is that the gifts are inappropriate, everything costs too much money, everyone eats and drinks too much, and some of the relatives can be difficult.
