It is now only 20 days until Christmas and I am hopelessly behind! There is no tree, I have made exactly one Christmas wreath, I have baked nothing........the list could go on and on.
One thing that would help - if I would stop playing with my cell phone and start doing some decorating. I have recently discovered the joy of texting and my buddy Raven and I have been playing texting tag for the past couple of days. It can be addicting and I must stop. Does anyone else feel this way or have I totally gone round the bend?
I have also totally fallen off the wagon - and then it ran over me - as far as my diet goes. Starting right this very moment, I am officially pushing my RESTART button before things get totally out of control! LOL There are many pitfalls (also known as Christmas parties) headed my way for the next 20 days. I keep telling myself - "this is not a big deal and I can handle this." I have not gained anything, so we are still down by 7! I feel like I have skated somehow, because I have been a very naughty girl on the diet front!
Enough! Off to get some decorations out of the garage and get busy! Happy decorating to all of you out there. I hope you are faring better than I! :)

Hey Jen-
If it makes you feel better I haven't done any decorating myself either. I have a virus and have been in bed the last day+1/2.
Just remember, Mary and Martha, God cares more about the heart than the fluff. I am having to counsel myself this way, more and more as the years go by. My middle name is Martha...LOL.
April-
Hope you are feeling better! What a time to get sick, eh?
I appreciate your reminder about what is really important to the Father. You are so right! I need to replace food with God and chew on that for a while!
Jen ~ Don't feel bad. I'm not even close to finishing my shopping and it's 18 days away. I decided against a tree this year just because it's only me and it's way too much work. As for the diet, it's good that you're starting fresh. I'm restarting January 1 ~ will all the treats my family, friends and I are making I'm kidding myself if I try to restart now.
Oh geez! I ate a two pack of Montana Monster cookies today - that is all I have eaten - but still! Too many treats around here! LOL
hmm.. now it is 5 days until Christmas and I have purchased exactly one present. And thanks to you I've been eating nothing but Moose Munch Caramel Corn for weeks!
(in my defence I would like to say I've decided to celebrate Christmas in January when I can do my shopping in peace and at a discount)
Hahahahaha! You deserved that Moose Crunch! Besides - better you than me. It's rumored in the village that you have kept that Moose Crunch locked up - that true?? <|;-)
