Can we please go rewind to July?

MissyOlivePants · December 2010

I think that I made a mistake that when I said "handmade/homemade" - that I was thinking that it would be handmade by ME. I wish I had saved up the money & just BOUGHT handmade gifts instead. I'm about to go crazy because the tension on my sewing machine is messing up again.

Here's my to-do list:

- Waldorf doll for Norah (not gonna happen this year. )

- cloth diapers & clothes for Norah's dolls

- t-shirt bags (4 total)

- apple butter (in progress)

- pumpkin butter (DONE)

- cloth checkers game

- crayon travel set (3 total, Norah, Eliana & Erkinesh) (DONE)

- scrap scarf

- various cookies & peppermint bark

- snack bags

- table runner & napkins (4 sets - Helen, Estes, Betsy, Beth)

- Advent calendar

- Bean bags (2 sets, Eliana & Norah)

- kid Moby wrap, doll dress & matching dress for Erkinesh

- knotty Waldorf baby doll (2 - Eva & Elizabeth)

- ornaments (DONE)

- dresses for Beths 3 girls

Ummm.....for Christmas 2011... I'll be taking a month long break then starting in February!

NO REWIND!

But, I'm sorry you didn't get as far on your list as you hoped. I didn't either.

I was about a billion months pregnant in July, so... NO!

I'm always overly ambitious for holidays.

I want to just pull the plug, but DD won't have anything from us then.

Is DD really going to notice/care that you didn't wrap anything for her? She gets your love and attention every day - gifts are just things and not nearly as important as being with her.

If it's stressing you I say bag it and spend the time with DD instead.
