I guess one could say that the fact that I have ninety billion things to do in the next four days is all my fault. After all, Ive known that Christmas was coming for roughly three hundred and sixty days now, and still, all last week I pretty much sat on my butt!

At least this way, I figure there will be no need for me to whine and complain about how I need fat burners and diet pills after Christmas is over, I will probably lose ten pounds just running around int he next four days getting things ready!

Besides the baking that needs to be finished – and trust me, it;s a lot of baking that needs to be finished, there is the general housework that I need to get done, PLUS the laundry… unless you think it would be OK for the kids to run around naked on Christmas morning? I mean we DID get them new outfits and they could wear those … so it would only be a few hours of nakedness.. right? RIGHT?

Pfft. I’m going to do the dishes in about twenty minutes, then make supper, then after the kids are in bed I will be decorating cookies, and then? More dishes!

Monday I will be making the pies and Tuesday i will eb makign the pumpkin rolls, Wednesday we will be at the inlaws and Thursday of course is Christmas. Somewhere in the middle of all of that I need to find the time to do about 15 loads of laundry and wash the floors. And maybe, if i’m feeling energetic, I can cleant he bathrooms too?
