holiday hump

so i figured if i get through my holiday party, i'm home free for the rest of the season. the party was a week before christmas, and my music man and i are headed to nc for a little r&r (at least for me -- i'm just along for the ride, he's planning lots of stuff). but nooooooooooooooo. party's over -- what happens?! things stay crazy! i'm pulling together gifts, packaging up boxes of gifts, cleaning the house (post-party, pre-vacation cleaning), i still haven't written out any christmas cards, AND i have cookie dough to roll out yet too. the only thing that seems to have relaxed a bit is work (which is good since i was NUTS before). so i've had to prioritize, and i apologize, but christmas cards are the last thing on my list. so is mopping the kitchen floor even though i know i will feel so much better when it gets done. i also have to pack for NC, and figure out what i'm bringing to wear. those of you that know me, know that's a long process.

so forgive the mass-greetings, but....

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!

and i'll write as i can over the rest of this year.
