New year

I feel like October just slid into January and I'm kind of freaked out. Christmas is over and I didn't accomplish what I wanted to either in the Autumn or at Christmas with my family. Everything takes me longer now and I get overwhelmed. The only way I can see to do everything I want next year with my kids is to start now to plan and do the crafts now that I want to have done by then. It's hard to become more disciplined after all these years but I know it will be worth it.
I feel very thoughtful and pensive. I have symptoms I don't know if they are just troublesome and I will be fine or signs that I might not be here for that long. It makes me want to squirrel away a few things for the kids while I can, especially finishing my books and having copies made for them to keep.
It's a lot to think about. I hope I can get it all done.
