why I did not post a daybook this week

 

As I explained to a friend  late Wednesday night:

1. The Cowgirl made her 3rd photo book, which took a weeeee bit longer than the others {kept the desktop computer occupied for several days}

2. Then she made a calendar too. {surprise for me! ha ha}

2b.  And they have been searching craigslist for a puppy :o

3. I wrote The Christmas Letter.  {coming soon to a mailbox near you}

4. And found enough photos to satisfy me.

5. Got them printed in town. And bought cheap envelopes.

6. Addressed them. {some with updated addresses...}

7. And folded the letters just so. And stuffed. And stamped...

8. I made raisin cinnamon bread for a couple Christmas gifts. {and tomorrow's bfast}

9. And my brother's monthly batch of bread.  {Delivered.}

10. And cookie dough. nom nom {not a very healthy lunch}

11. I did a little treasurer work. I also cleaned off that laptop's internet history mostly... readying it for the next treasurer  :-)

12. I just played my first game of spider solitaire in how many days?

13. It's after 11 AGAIN.

14. I still have another Amazon order to make!  oh and vitamins too.

15. Did I tell you I have an active facebook account again? :p  Not much longer methinks...

16. Laundry and Wives & Daughters too.  But no ironing…

17. Stayed up TOO late Thursday night with ‘last’ Amazon orders and researching homemade stuff ~ after a loooong afternoon running and shopping in Ames, and an evening meeting.

18. Stayed up TOO late again Friday night after a day of  cooking and final gift-making and wrapping and finishing this project…

 

Soooo, it’s bedtime!  it’s bedtime! 

It’s bedtime at our house! 

There’s been singing and laughing…

Now we’re quiet as a mouse.  {shhhhh}
