(...another list. Hey, I'm moving and Santa is expected to arrive in less than a week. Doin' my best here!)
1. Stocking stuffers: I'm so bad at this! I always think I'm done, and then I realize I have nothing for stockings. So, I need 2 oranges, a bunch of candy, and a knickish knackish something for both of the kids.
2. E. Darn his hide. I can't decide if he REALLY only wants the Fringe season 2 DVDs that he ORDERED FOR HIMSELF or if I really need to go comb the town for something else amazing. Maybe I'll stick some sticky bows to my tits Christmas Eve and just give him a good old fashioned jolly rogering.
3. The CROCHET! Having decided to give my loved ones all small store bought gift plus a handmade crocheted item seemed like a good idea...in October. Now I am rushing to finish Mom's shawl, hats for the extended family boys, and other stuff for other people.
4. Cookies. When are Soph and I going to make cookies? Tomorrow morning? Sounds good to me. We need some Russian tea cookes, cut outs (where oh where are the cookie cutters!?), and I also promised her we'd make some almond bark. Ok. Doable.
This really doesn't sound like too big of a list, until you take into account that I also need to PACK AND MOVE next week.
Today's best thing about being a mom: Being forced to slow down and make cookies in the midst of the chaos.
Today's worst thing about being a mom: See above.
