Procrastinating

I have so many things on my to-do list, I don't know where to start. Well, I do know where to start, I just don't want to. What I want to do (and what I think I actually am going to do) is plop on the couch and watch a Netflix video while knitting myself a new hat to wear because it is freakin' cold outside! I need a hat to match the wild glittens I knit myself over the summer. And I'm still chronically sleep deprived, but can't go to bed yet because I need to unwind first.

Here are just a few of the things that are going to have to wait another evening:

Organize and upload all the photos from the past year to shutterfly for printing. We've been giving Joe's parents and brother little photo albums of the kids for Christmas each year, and they haven't complained yet so they're getting 'em again this year. Plus, I need to print copies for their baby books.

Design and implement the holiday card thingie I have in mind, handwrite all the envelopes and get them in the mail. I have a thing about handwritten Christmas cards. I don't like address labels on personal mail.

Get out the sewing machine for a little Christmas-related project that also qualifies as home improvement.

Finish Sophie's stocking.

Prepare notes and handouts for a new class I'm teaching in a couple of months - the store wants more info like yesterday.

Research cookie recipes and craft ideas for Christmas/Holiday tradition activities for me and Julie.

Oh, and I really should finish packing up the box for my SP9 pal and get that puppy shipped off as well.

There are only about a million other things on the list, but they're all going to have to wait. I'm going to go spend a little quality time with my couch.

That's what I'm doing right now! Quality time with my couch and my knitting (and my laptop...). I'm so glad you said that about address labels on Christmas cards because I was *this* close to printing out labels tonight...but it just didn't feel right. I ALWAYS handwrite them. And this year will be no different. Thanks for the reminder! See you Saturday!

I hear ya on the Christmas cards. Handwritten just has a more personal feel to it. Cute patches on Julie's pants by the way!
