UP TO MY EYEBALLS IN WRAPPING!1
WELL, I HAVE BEEN UP SINCE 6:30 WRAPPING AND I HAVE BARELY PUT A DENT IN IT. I WAS SUPPOSE TO WORK MY SHILFT AS A VOLUNTEER AT THE HOSPITAL GIFT SHOP BUT I CANCELLED BECAUSE I AM STARTING TO GET THAT PANICED FEELING. I HAVE TOO...MUCH TO DO AND THE COUNTDOWN IS ON. I DO NOT DO WELL UNDER PRESSURE...THAT IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT!! SO ALL OF TODAY AND TOMORROW WILL BE DEVOTED TO WRAPPING.
THE WEATHER HERE HAS BEEN WEIRD BUT FANTASTIC AS FAR AS THE TEMPS GO. ON MONDAY WE HAD THE HIGHEST TEMPS IN ALL OF NORTH AMERICA. WEIRD!! TUESDAY WE WERE HIT HARD AS A MAJOR STORM PASSED THROUGH IT BROUGHT RECORD RAINS AND ALMOST HURRICANE WINDS. WE WERE WITHOUT POWER FOR MOST OF THE DAY. HOWEVER SOME PARTS OF THE PROVINCE WAS OUT LONGER AND HAD MAJOR FLOODING. I'LL TAKE THE WARM TEMPS FOR AS LONG AS I CAN. I SO....HATE THE COLD.
WELL, I BEST GET BACK TO WRAPPING. I USUALLY LOVE IT BUT RIGHT NOW I AM NOT REALLY ENJOYING IT BECAUSE OF THE PRESSURE. HOPEFULLY, BY THE END OF THE DAY I WILL FEEL BETTER.

You always make me chuckle. What a vision with you surrounded by wrapping, bows, and gifts with just your eyeballs peeking out. I understand what you mean about stepping back when you begin to feel that anxiety creeping in. It is such a wonderful indicator for us. It is how I felt last week and as I completed projects on my list was relieved of it.
We have to listen to our signals. We have them but many dont realize it. Maybe next year you should take the vacation AFTER the holidays silly. Dave and I usually take one in February but that wont happen this year with the new business beginning. Hell, I might just take one myself. I could stop and pick you up along the way, lol.
Luv you and hope you have fun wrapping. I have little to do since I opted to give gift cards. Most of my family is older and love the after sales. I did buy for the younger ones which was fun but there are only four. Our fam seems to be getting smaller, ugh.
Much love....or did I say that already a hundred times. lol............((((Hugs))))
i know just what you mean about getting overwhellmed.i started early and finished early,. but i am still feeling so overwhellmed.. i just need the holidays to be over already .,i am so done this yr.. you will get done .dont worry. hugs .love marie
Well I was up with you but I was baking for my customers with eyes half open. I didn\'t make any mistakes but all you have to do is read and mix. I made Banana Nut bread, Blueberry Orange, and Peach. Boy did we smell good. I give them a loaf and a jar of Strawberry Jam. That is why I make so much jam in the summer. Actually not everyone gets jam..tsk. tsk. I think I feel better but I am to tired to tell. I love being tired then you know you will go to sleep. Hope you get your wrapping done. Hugs Naomi xo
