I have made it a personal goal to faithfully post on my blog everyday except Sundays. It’s just this thing I need to do…makes me feel like something is being handled well.

Anyway, the last couple of weeks, with all of the Christmas build-up, it’s been really hard to keep up!

I refuse to feel like a failure.

So I’m giving you my list. Of why I didn’t post yesterday (even though I’m thankful!) and I didn’t post today (other than this lame list).

Since Thursday morning I have:

Completed three days worth of a Nutcracker unit study with my girls
Addresed and mailed all of my Christmas cards
Constructed/sewn three mini fabric dollhouses for my girls’ Christmas presents
run 1.28 miles on my treadmill
fed three little people about eight different times
washed & dried two loads of laundry
read four chapters of a great book
completed one lesson of the Bible study I’m doing in Philippians
spent two hours hanging out with some good friends
took my girls to the practice for their Christmas program at church
shopped for and made cupcakes for about fifteen kids
made as many construction paper Christmas cards for a craft project
fielded emails to sort out where our Show & Tell day/ Birthday Party for Jesus was going to take place
attended the above activity
took a shower
primped my girls for their Christmas program
did a photo shoot of each girl while they were all primped
attended Christmas program
went out to dinner with our neighbor who attended the Christmas program
welcomed my sister who is visiting from out of state for Christmas
put my pajamas on and climbed into bed

Wow. When I started typing this list I felt like I really had not accomplished much in the last two days. Maybe I expect too much. I don’t know. Anyway, sorry for falling behind. Please tell me it’s okay….because I need to be realistic and let it be okay.
