I'm feeling a little crazy today

• Christmas cards still have not arrived.
• My sewing machine has been acting up today with loads and loads of sewing waiting in the wings...this is not a good time Mr. Viking!
• Mr. Brown aka UPS arrived with just two out of the eight packages I'm expecting.
• I haven't even begun three important gifts I planned on making. I've got ideas and already dyed the fabric in...get this Starbucks coffee...just need to get around to the actual designing part.
• I still haven't wrapped a single gift.
• I made two batches of cookies this morning and the basic mix for several more...when the hoot am I going to have the time?
• We're expecting a ton of snow tomorrow, Sunday and Christmas Eve.

The bottom line is...and I do this to myself all the time. All the time. I put too much on my plate. At this point I'm convinced I do it on purpose. You know, for the thrill of it all. To see if I can actually accomplish everything I want to accomplish and still have a neat house. It's a little game I play...I know. Sicko.

please pray that I get my everything tomorrow...K?

Trying to get a quick little blog in here today!

Just finished up the Trunk Show orders and wrapped them for delivery. My fave is the little Asian girl...I just loooove her! Sorry the pic is a bit blurry!

I think I'm going to start including a little matching tag that can be used for gifting with each order. I normally make the tag as seen above but the back has my info on it and gifters may want to write their own little message. So from this point on each design will come with not one but two tags! You can see the little tags below (I used them to label whose packages were whose this time around :)

Had to keep the girls busy while working away. I knew before they began I was asking for trouble: glue + paint + sparkly things + glitter = A MESS!

Poor little Stella she's got an awful rash on her face...see? Oh and notice the glitter in the corner...full, right? NOT ANYMORE!

Holiday decorations are up and continuing to be tweaked.

Our tree :)

My little house collection...and Ruby's pig she made at school :)

Haven't done much here but will!

Our barn mirror...our walls in this room are actually a very rich brown...it looks gross in this pic.
And finally, this is what I'm making for dinner :)

xoxoxo

so much to do...

and so little time to do it! today has been a crazy nutty day...one i'd rather dismiss entirely. you can read about that over at my new blog devoted entirely to me whining here. i'll try and keep 'i love plum' light and colorful and devoted to all things lovely :)

i had a TON to get off my chest (dirty laundry) so have used up my puter time to getting my therapy off the ground.

we're back from the cape and had a great time beaching it and getting eaten by bugs...maybe some of my cape post should be over at my other blog ;) got home last night and we've been straight out all day...tomorrow should be no different. guess who's turning 8 tomorrow????? can't believe my baby is 8!!!

this is a quickie just to let you know i haven't forgotten you and am so grateful you check on me!!! things should quiet down in the next couple of days and i'll post something with quality. till then i'll leave you with a couple of pix! xo
