It is with great pleasure and a huge sigh of relief that I make the following important announcement:
THE HANDMADE GIFT IS FINISHED!That's right, folks. The handmade gift is FINISHED. The dining room may be a total disaster area; my manicure may have chipped completely off; I may not have gotten enough sleep or exercise for the last week; and my family may or may not recall having interacted with me during the last 48 hours; but the deed is done.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, I give you the To-do list for the remainder of Christmas In August:
CLEAN ALL OF THIS STUFF UP!
Please excuse me while I sip a pumpkin spice latte and slip into a temporary coma.
TALLY:
Friends & Family: 18 out of 18, CHECK!
10 Neighbors: CHECK!
45 Piano Students: CHECK!
Charitable Gifts: 5 out of 6, CHECK!
70 Amazing Christmas Cards: CHECK!
Stockings: COMPLETELY STUFFED!
Handmade Gift: FINISHED!!
Stockings are even stuffed?! I am SO jealous.
ReplyDeleteYou have to follow up in December and let us know what it feels like to have all this completed.
Thank you for reading...and for being jealous, Lee!! I can't believe it's done. I'm thinking I might get excited about Christmas this year! A follow-up would be a great idea. I'll plan on it!
