I'm too busy to blog. It's Christmas!
I'm shopping,
I'm baking.
I'm putting up Christmas decorations.
Have you noticed that EVERY magazine you pick up these days has an article advertised on its cover about how to simplify Christmas, or how to have a stress free Christmas?
Tomorrow, I need to do my Christmas cards and finish putting up my outdoor decorations.
I don't have enough stocking stuffers for my son either so I'd love to hit the mall.
We got the tree today and put it in the stand, but we still need to decorate it.
Hmmm, I'm behind on the laundry and we need groceries too.
I wonder what all those magazine articles actually say? Stress free? Simple?
I'm thinking - no.
But really, who has the time to actually read them to check?
I'm Leanne and I'm a tired mama. I work, I parent, I juggle and I don't seem to get enough sleep. Welcome to the place where I rant about all these things...





A-men to that. Nobody will read that to know the difference! I'm behind on EVERYTHING too. And yet sadly, here I am, once again, BLOGGING. :(

I usually read my magazine articles in June and think "yeh, that'd be a great idea this year!" And then promptly forget about it by July 4.

I'm with you on the magazines that all seem to claim the way to a simple Christmas. I can't believe it's already Dec. 9th- this month seems to fly by.

I finally got all my Christmas cards done today and tomorrow I am putting up a second tree (because Alexis keeps begging me) and then I'm wrapping presents. My week is full of Christmas stuff too - it is crazy. Hope to see you around some - take care. Kellan

I remember thinking that since Thanksgiving was early this year, it was going to be a piece of cake to get everything done for Christmas. WRONG.

I meant to boycott this year... but then got swept up in it all again. Oh well. My kids better get me a good nursing home when I'm old; I deserve it. (In fact, I'd go now...)

For me, the cooking, baking, cleaning and everything else can wait. But not blogging! LOL!

Okay, my advice....take a deep breath, make a list, check it twice...determine what can be shaved off the list. Works done, enjoy a glass of wine or hot chocolate.
