Aren't we humans a funny sort. It's like we're SO SURPRISED that it's already Christmastime again. Like we didn't know it would come right back around in 365 days. I for one feel more unprepared than I ever have before. Mainly because of this BIGa$$ project I stupidly started a week ago. urgh. I blame John and myself equally for being in this current predicament. John for waiting so long to say, "Oh, I guess you're right. Yeah, let's go ahead and do it." and me for jumping into it, knowing that realistically it was just too close to the holidays. Well, it is what it is--I'm spending all my days trying to wrap up this monstrosity of a project so I can then start decorating and feeling Christmas-y. I still believe in a handmade holiday but this year...well; let's just say "thank goodness for etsy and local craft shows!" While you're waiting in anticipation to see what the heck I'm talking about ;-) you might have a look at the virtual advent calendar I did during December last year. Boy, I sure had my act together compared to today! I think I'll be ready to show you pictures by the 13th. I'll call it The Twelve Days Til Christmas. :-) Until then ... between last years' advent calendar and a few crafty ideas I'll be sharing (even tho it's probably too late for Christmas gifts), well, that's all I've got! See you soon.

I agree...it comes way to early every year. I need a calendar that tells me lies so that I can be on time. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving...can't wait to see what you are cookin' up this time.

We don't even have our tree yet. Though I did manage to clean the house so we could get ready this weekend.

I can't wait to see what you've cooked up! I SWEAR it was JUST YESTERDAY I was griping that it was too early for Christmas in the stores/ads. And in an instant it's here. Now. And I'm not ready!
