11 Days of Christmas

We're into the tipping point of the rest of the year flying by in a series of:

  • manic Amazon purchases which has ensured you will sign up for one more year of Prime
  • crushed visits to your local bookstore where you end up buying things for yourself
  • last minute Christmas cards and hoping that you don't repeat last year and send multiple cards to people (running count three).  You write personalized messages so you're left wondering if you repeated or contradicted yourself.  This is of course the downside to pairing writing with reading water.
  • commitments to baking cookies that seemed like a really good idea at the beginning of the month
  • desperate knitting which seemed like a great idea in November
  • multiple holiday parties
  • crazy road trips
  • panicked purchases of pink lipstick to go with a crazy dress that you just had to have for the party*
  • Starbucks visits where they start making your latte the moment you walk in because they know what kind of week you've had
culminating in some amazing visits with family friends and potentially one frozen blogger.

Happy holidays ahead! Hope you enjoy every second.

*You waited too long to find a dress.  You have limited options and tried on six.  This was the one the sales person recommended.  You agreed.
