I had my first real "lose-it" moment tonight. Guess what happened?
Yep. I promised so many people that they would have their Christmas cards before Christmas, and that the secret to the sex of Smith Child #3 would be in it. But it ain't gonna happen.
I should have known better than to hold off until after the 22nd, and expect the stupid computer and printer to communicate correctly, for me to know how to make the same Christmas photo page we've made for the last several years, and for me not to just plain lose my mind.
Should have known better. But didn't.
But I am better now, thanks to a very late trip to Fred Meyer to buy dill to make Grandma's famous Herbed Dinner Rolls. A couple of good songs on KLOVE, and actually one of them was the Christmas Shoes song, and my mind was back on track, focused on where it is supposed to be. That even though some of you will not find out what we are having until after Christmas, it will not be the end of your world, and I should therefore not feel a huge load of guilt bearing down on me. Remind me that you will be so busy you won't even know what you are missing- especially because it doesn't change a thing...:-) Baby is still baby, and won't be here till spring.
Now, some sleep would be good, and start fresh tomorrow. Amen.
