So, those of you who know me well, know that I LOVE Christmas! I hate to be stressed around the holiday so I try to buy things throughout the year when they are on sale.
On top of that, every year I do some homemade gifts too. I like to know my plans for Christmas gifting by March. Then I just start buying supplies and whatever I need while I am buying all the non-homemade stuff.
For me, Planning = no stress around the holidays. Who would like to guess how that worked out for me and my procrastinating bum this year?
Let me put it to you like this...
I have 5 sewing projects, 5 craft projects, 2 scrapbooking things and 6 canning.
Things completed...
2 sewing projects.
6 canning
In my defense I am very close to finishing the 5 craft projects and I have just started the scrapbooking stuff.
Next year's goal: Give my self a month per homemade project to complete it! And stop picking so many long projects! Seriously, what was I thinking?!
Hmmm? Whats that you say?......Oh, set a goal, and then actually reach it. Intriguing concept!
Childish rant over, you may now return to your daily activities.
