It is a grey, rainy, icky day around these parts - we need the rain, but I am also VERY glad that I got all my errand running done yesterday, because I do not want to leave the house today AT ALL. (I did get coffee. That is it.)
Yesterday after going all over the place, the only thing I got done around the house was emptying the sink and running the dishwasher AND I DIDN'T FEEL BAD ABOUT IT. I can either do a multi-hour errand day, or get a bunch of stuff done around the house - but I can't do both in one day. Never have - but I just felt like a failure instead of acknowledging "Hey, I walked 4 miles getting all that shit done and I am tired and it's time to rest." Personal growth!
Today's exciting plans are getting the various and sundry boxes that have taken over the breakfast nook upstairs to the office and getting all that sorted. Looking a bit like a UPS store over there. Also putting together the grocery list for Christmas brunch. Order for the ham has been placed and pickup time scheduled.
It's only December 10th. I cannot remember the last time I was this much on top of everything for the holidays. I'm on PTO next week and it's going to be actually RELAXING. I'll only have to go out 3 times. Finish the stocking stuffer shopping. Get the groceries for Christmas Day. Pick up the ham. THAT'S IT!
Like, who is this person that is going to spend Christmas Eve just chilling out and drinking wine and eating cheese and Trader Joe's snacks ALL DAY?! ME!
You have a great day and I hope your holiday prep is going as well as mine is.
