it's beginning to look a lot like.....

Two days of cold, rainy, windy, cloudy -- nasty, nasty weather! I seldom enjoy these kind of days, and I have really disliked these last two. I need a regular dose of sunshine -- it doesn't have to be warm, just sun!

So, October flew by -- don't know where it got to, but it's outtahere! And Thanksgiving is next week?!? I swear, it must be early this year! (I know that Thanksgiving can't officially be early, but it sure feels like it!) And have I finished any of my Christmas knitting yet? Noooo, of course not. The sweater for my mom is almost done; the vest for my hubby is almost done, the scarf for Nat is almost done. The socks for my d-i-l are not even on the needles, and neither are her hat and fingerless gloves. Oh yeah! the sweater for my DS is finished!! Woo hoo! (but, that doesn't really count, since I started it last year in some sort of sick, deluded belief that he would get it for Christmas last year). I have one, that's right - one - fingerless glove finished for one s-i-l; the other 3 or 4 pair are still in the planned stage. And have I bought any other X-mas gifts as yet? (you know the answer to that one).

And to boot, I'm in charge of the Advent team at church -- a devotional booklet to put together; a live nativity to finish organizing, of which I am specifically responsible for writing the script to be broadcast, as well as getting the guy over to record it; an Advent Sunday school lesson to finish writing (as I will be teaching it) -- and all of this is supposed to reflect the theme of preparing, remembering, and celebrating Christ's birth -- you know, not to overdo, to remember that Christmas season starts on Christmas day

I will not panic; I will not panic; I will not panic......


AHHHAAAAHHHAAAA!!!
