“sigh” (she said.)

Mosaic515541
1. two new e’s for my collection, 2. made with love, 3. Capturing breakfast sunlight., 4. just something about you, 5. breakfast-before, 6. silhouette#2, 7. thank you, 8. The last three.

I am buried. Not in snow (thank goodness), but in covers. Four layers worth. Plus sweatpants.

Also metaphorically buried. (How dramatic). But seriously. I get like this right before I have time off. It is like throughout the week I can separate my spare time into manageable (small), un-daunting, yet inspiring tasks. The possibility of two days overwhelms.

And I really know I am in a bit of a bad spot because the idea of making a list of tasks makes me sigh.

    Make STRONG coffee and give yourself 6 minutes to make a list. The GO! Take advantage of a day off to get things done – so that the days off closer to Christmas you can just chill with Paul. Get at it!

    I’m also feeling overwhelmed with holiday stuff. I’m about to say “hell with it” and not do any of it!

    I always neglect our French press because I’m lazy, then I see pictures like #3 and totally want to go dig it out again! Love these!

    As a resident of the great state of Minnesota I read your snow post and would recommend that you buy a hat instead of earmuffs. Earmuffs will keep your ears warm but that is no good because you want to keep your body warm. You should invest in a hat. One that pulls over year head and over your ears. Wearing a hat will keep the heat in your body. Also, I’ve found that a good scarf, not some flimsy stylish one is good. Keeping your neck wrapped up keeps the heat in and keeps you warm.
    I realize that a hat will give you hat hair but if it’s really cold it’s probably more important that your body is warm. 🙂
    Have fun enjoying the snow. It really is so much fun.

    break it up into sets of hours if you dont want to make specific to do lists, that always helps. and make sure you leave time for fun, relazing and inspiring things too!
