Everyday, really?

What on earth was I thinking when I said I would post something everyday for the month of December? I can barely do once a week sometimes and that's not even when I have a hundred other things on my plate and something going on every night! Really, my husband has only been home one night this month when he was not working or we had some party or something. That was back on the 9th. Luckily we decided to take the boys to the light festival that night or we probably would have missed it this year! And now, my husband is gone at work for three days while I try to finish Christmas cards, neighbor treats, shopping, wrapping everything, laundry and packing for Denver. He will get home Monday morning when we will host his parents for breakfast/Christmas presents, etc. and then we will pack the car and leave for Denver the next morning. It seems like everything I need to do is something that is much better done when my boys are sleeping, so needless to say I have had alot of late nights. Anyway, long story short I have given up on the "everyday" thing and you will just get what you get. (It was really more for myself anyway, since I never scrapbook anymore and I just want to keep track of everything before I forget!) Hope everyone else's holiday preparations are going smashingly . . .

I LOVE that you labeled this post "whining." Remember the sign in my kitchen? You owe me $5!

Good for you. Way to just quit, rather than keeping at trying and then beating yourself up for failing. I really respect people who know when to quit. :) Good luck doing everything without your hubby. I wish I were there so I could take your boys for a few hours while you get things done!

Oh, I forgot to say, you are amazing and there is no way I could do what you do!
