Well, I'm sorry, but I have at least one more for you...
Brent asked me to get my tires rotated today. I loathe doing anything of that nature...So, I quickly informed I simply would have no time to deal with such frivolities today. No INDEED.
Instead I must do forty dozen loads of laundry...When will my children learn that their jeans do not need to go in the laundry every blessed time they remove them? When, when, when, when, my soul is crying out. After all, everyone else realizes you must change your underwear every day. And a new shirt is required daily...But pants? You can wear pants FOR.EV.ER!
Oh, and I must go to the store for some supplies for the endless Christmas baking I'm wanting to begin.
Oh, and I'm ever so eager to get going on my annual Christmas obsessions!
Do you have any Christmas obsessions? I have too many to count, but here are just a few I have to share with you.
Color you excited!
Hold on to your seats, Gentle Reader!!!
Every year I buy a Christmas jigsaw puzzle. And I obsess over it. And I sit down to finish one little area...
And two hours later my back aches from bending over and changing positions twenty times to get a new perspective on the pieces. This year I wisely bought a 550 piece puzzle so my obsession could be a little shorter lived. Oh, and the annual Christmas jigsaw puzzle is another reason I simply had to get out the table that Brent was so agreeable to pack away for all of thirty minutes last weekend.
I love Walter Wick books. I love that his pictures tell a story, and I love the challenge of finding each hidden item. I buy a new Christmas book every time I see one. I saw a Halloween one this year and barely restrained myself from starting a new obsession.
As I sit on my recliner, by the fireplace where all recliners belong, and type a few posts to sustain my eager readers for the next several days, I'm day dreaming of making fudge. And ginger cookies. Oh, and I'm very eager to make some shaped sugar cookies, and get an assembly line of butter frosting going for a great big cookie decorating frenzy!
I think I will stick to a quick batch of fudge...But first I'm off to wrap some gifts!
For now.

You are a busy lady. You will be pleased to know that I bought 2 new puzzles. I don't think either are christmas. Oh well, I am not as ambitious as you and don't have decorations out yet except for the lawn decorations that someone has given me tthe past two years. I also just put my solar lights around them so I wouldn't have to string out a cord. Is that lazy?
I don't do puzzles. They should go together quickly--it cracks me up that you claim to be ADD but will do a puzzle and I'm not and hate them!. Love your Christmas reminisces (spelling, oops!) And recliners definitely belong by the fireplace!
