i dont know what it is with me...i cant even get to the part after santa comes before the letdown starts. i guess i blew some of my anticipatory adrenaline when i was a kid because i got so much stuff for christmas back then. it is like my excitement fluid is running low or something. or maybe it is because i have to clean the house and go out in the snow today. bleh! i would rather just stay home in bed with the dogs. i dont think if the dogs and myself ever entered the iditerod that they would be able to drag me out of the tent to finish the race. i would use up all my excitement like the first day and then lay out there and freeze to death or something. yikes.
but this place has to get cleaned up. i went in search for some white square paper to make some snowflakes for my friend in joisey because she has no snow and we got like 10 inches or something. i asked bill did he know where i might have put the white square paper and he said did you try the craft closet? well i was hoping actually it would not be in the craft closet because then i would get to looking thru crocheting, knitting, scrapbooking, cross stitching stuff that i need to finish from years past or i would stop and get reinterested in it all and get busy planning some more projects from my gazillions of how to craft books. and i realized while i was in there, i never finished the disney scrapbooks from when we took the kids to disney 3 years ago. they are in a rubbermade tub and one book got started but the other 5 have never even been touched. so i know what some kids are getting for christmas next year. empty scrapbooks with disney stuff and photos of their trip to disney to stick in their own dang books. sheesh, what was i thinking?
i found the paper and the snowflakes turned out well and i did not stop and do any other crafty things, just worked on the snowflakes and emailed with my mother. and i got them all done and i did not cut up the wrong side and have them all fall apart in my lap like i used to when i was a kid. i just sucked at that sort of thing back then. i will say it is still hard to be a lefty and use scissors, especially when the paper is folded up so small and tight as it is when you want to make snowflakes.
time for me to go and do some laundry or something. blech! wintertime and all the dang clothes that it requires.

I have a method for all those unfinished projects. I make myself finish one, before starting another. That goes for books too! I know, too organized. :)
