Reality Check

So I get a bunch of crap emails every day, from stores, websites, etc.  Today I was weeding through them, and one of the subjects read:  "Psst. It's me, Christmas. (And I'm only 11 days away)."

I did a double take, and then had to check the calendar to see if that was right.  Really?  Only 11 days?  Holy crap!  December continues to sneak by me without me noticing, it is so weird.  Does anyone else feel totally caught off guard by the holidays this year?  I mean, we have our tree up, most of the presents are taken care of (some are already wrapped), and yet I still feel like it's coming way too fast!

Re: Reality Check

  • Agreed!  I can't even believe next week is Christmas Eve.   I still have some stuff I need to get taken care of.

  • Yeah, I have less than a week left of work for the rest of the year!  I didn't realize that until last night.  I was pretty excited!

     haha

  • I seriously can NOT believe Christmas is 11 days away, I am so not ready.  I love the Christmas season, so I wish it would slow down!

    This is me too.  Except I don't have a list.  :(

     

  • I agree.  Although I knew it was 11 days before because today is my b-day Big Smile

    I think the weather has thrown me off this year.  It doesn't feel "winter" enough to be Christmas yet!!!

  • I just realized yesterday that it's next weekend! We are all done with shopping, we just need to figure out everyone's plans of where we're going what day.

    LOL!

    I still only have one person shopped for.  I things for other people, but they aren't done.  *sigh*

    We are putting up our tree tonight, though.  YAY!  Next week is pretty open, so I'll be doing LOTS of shopping - oy...

  • Somewhat.  It hasn't helped that we've been sick this entire month.  I don't have my cards sent out yet, and really, I'm not stressing about it.  I guess as long as I sent my package to Tucson for family, that's all i wanted to get out.  When I get to the cards I will & people will get them.  I guess I'm trying to just enjoy this time & not worry about things.

  • I'm not thrown too much that Christmas is next week, except it doesn't totally feel right, just because we haven't had any snow yet.
    I'm more in panic mode that I have to prepare for a long drive home and some how have our xmas done and the family packed by xmas morning.
