More Crafting ...

I'm finishing up the Christmas wrapping with a few more boxes that I've hand decorated. I have 2 or 3 more to do depending on time.

I'm making the little hats too.  The yarn from Amazon is delayed until tomorrow night (at least) which is a bummer. I don't need anymore hats, but they're fun to make and I want to do more of a variety. Maybe MY fun today will be going to Micheals to buy some yarn. 

I have a lot to do these last 4 days, but I'm having trouble caring or planning or something. It's almost like denial that I have a big Christmas meal looming with company too. I've simplified some things, but I'm now cooking and bringing Christmas Eve LUNCH to my aunt's for after our hike. Lunch for 9 people. Geez. Calm before the storm usually isn't calm for me. I'm usually trying to get far ahead and I sort of don't care this year. It's a little strange and I know I'll pay for it on Friday and Saturday. I hope the food feels festive enough, but I'm not doing much about making that happen. 

I probably should offload some of the work today to save my back. I'll think about it. All I want to do is craft and chill though.

The Christmas cactus is getting ready for the holiday. It's so amazing how specifically these plants time their blooms.

We're on the final stretch, then a few days break, then the run up to the baby shower. I'm tired and ready for a break. Next year I'm doing things very different. Later gators.
