I have neither disappeared...
...nor gone on vacation. I promise I will post again one of these days. Right after the to-do list isn't tapping its gnarly little fingers on the table beside me every time I sit down to do something fun. Like writing a post.
Every year I say I'm going to slow down during the Christmas season, because everything else forces me to speed up. And yet, every year, I agree to go to one more event, and take on one more job. And amongst all this, my little ones just want me to play outside and go for a walk and build another lego castle. And too often I have to say "not right now, Mommy's busy". They get frantic, I don't feel like I'm doing anything to my best ability, and my stress level is through the roof.
It's ridiculous. I chose to be a SAHM for very specific reasons, and I can't seem to keep my eyes focused on those reasons. They are so fuzzy, so much of the time.
I need some Peace on Earth in the home right now. Can I get an amen?

AMEN, sister....My thoughts exactly. No matter how I try to trim down my "to-do" list, it keeps me hopping until the last minute. I asked DB last night why we aim each year to have "free time" in November & December so we can enjoy the holidays and yet find the months fly by without so much as a cup of coffee by the water?? Next year.....
I hear ya, sister! A resounding and hardy AMEN!
