Oooohhh, I needed this today!
Today I will...
1. Finish the Christmas ornaments I'm making--they only need the rubs on the outside!
2. Ribbon up the frames.
3. Make 2 sets of coasters.
4. Finish laundry.
5. Get the big tree fluffed up and ready to be lit and ornamented.
6. Make pumpkin bread & pistachio bread & Cherry Mash bars.
7. Make Taco Soup in the crock pot for my family & my BFFs.
8. Find a box big enough for the overly long Christmas gift I bought for Honey--what was I thinking when I bought it?!?
9. Make oyster crackers ala Grandma Smith.
10. Squeeze in a nap between the loads of laundry, the baking & the Christmas stuffs--there won't be time tomorrow OR Saturday for that! : )
I'm going to print this out & cross them off as I complete them--wish me luck! : )
xoxo.

This is a very good idea as I am feeling very low energy today (like I just want to sleep the day away):
1. 3 loads of laundry
2. clean the kitchen (sparkling) and living room so I can haul out the decorations
3. play with my bubbas
4. call my kid's pre school teacher
5. call about spa appointment
6. haul out christmas decorations:)
Wish me luck!

Seriously, congrats Heather on the house closing!!!! Yipee!!
I have 3 things done! (although, please don't come do a white glove test or invite the queen to tea)
and since playing with the bubbas is an ongoing, all day extravaganza, I'm just going to count that, especially since I am, as we speak, petting a "puppy" named Sawyer (in the form of a 3 year old boy). : )
now to tackle some laundry...ugh...I mean YAY!

I have a major obsession with lists, and have a to do list on my computer that I update daily! Since I am coming into this so late today, here is the list for the rest of my day:
*Finish Project Runway Challenge #2
*Start PR Chall. #3
*Start on the 12 Days of X-Mas ATC's (already sketched out!)
*X-Mas Cards for Clients
*Decorate the house for X-Mas
*Finish Cleaning the house before Dad gets here tomorrow
*Make Two Ornaments (hoping to get to these tonight)
hmm...I am hoping to make it home by 6:30pm so that I might actually be able to finish one of these things. Considering I want to do them all tonight, I may be up a creek!! :)
