By tonight, I think I

By tonight, I think I will have finished making presents for three out of the ten people to gather at my parents house this year. How did December fly by so fast?!?
Of course, one of those people is me, so I'm really only making presents for nine people. Whew, I feel so much better...

At least, I know what I'm doing for a couple more... I think... if it all works out... if I can do a marathon couple of nights.

Believe it or not, I am enjoying this. This is a lot better than worrying if I've bought the right gift, if I've spent my money evenly across the board, if I've put enough thought into things.
I've definitely put thought into all of these gifts. They are not perfect, but they're homemade and through all the cursing and frustration, I thought of each and every one of my recipients...

So, as all of you who are done your Christmas shopping sit there and thank god you didn't try something crazy and actually make your gifts this year, you can go wastespend your time making snowflakes.
