Someone please lie to me
We aren't a week away from Christmas, right? It's more like two? I need more time!
I need time to wrap gifts. Decorate our tree. Maybe slice down some Tollhouse cookie dough & toss the slices in the oven.

Re: Someone please lie to me
I still have gifts to mail. Haven't done any cards. Haven't even had C's 2nd birthday pics taken yet (2 months late). Trying to get goodies made for gifts for local relatives. Oh, and just starting on wrapping gifts.
What else.. oh.. hosting a cookie exchange on Tuesday night and my dining room table looks like an elf crapped wrapping paper and ribbon all over it.
The reality set in for me when I walked into Hollister, of all places. All I needed was a gift card for my nephew. I walked in the store & the end of the line was at the store's entrance, no exaggeration. I took a brief lap to convince myself that wasn't the end of the line, but nope. That was it. I walked out.
Ugh, my dining room table. Forget elves. My junk drawer vomited all over mine. I started out with good intentions, then...eh. I need to realize that starting a few different projects at once isn't always multi-tasking.
What, Christmas is a week away! Crap!! Need to buy gifts, wrap and send them to my mom's house, so we won't have to strap a child to the top of the car to fit everything in the car for our trip there, take the picture for cards, order them, address and mail them, oh, and still do my day job, and mommy and wife job. Forget cookies, I bought them.
LOL about Santa and biggest loser. Afterward, I may join him at the North Pole to escape this life for a few days.
