Random sampling of my To Do List before Wednesday 9 AM

1. Clean house More or less done. Good enough for government work. :0

2. Get key to catsitter

3. Clean out litter box

4. Pack for myself and four children for cold weather

5. Get my mammogram

6. Wrap presents for my mother, 2 sisters, father, brother-in-law, niece, nephew, grandmother, and friend to take on trip 15 presents wrapped and ready to go

7. Go to oldest son's first basketball game of the season He made the game winning shot!!!

8. Get directions to lodge where we're staying and find out whether or not there's a washing machine which will dictate how much I have to pack.

9. Download Christmas music to my iPod so that I can listen to it on the drive back

10. Help older daughter make something to take to the Middle School International Banquet Cake cooling in preparation for frosting

11. Potentially deal with more mother-in-law insanity

That's without the usual make lunches, get kids to school, make dinner, etc of my life.

Send energy my way please. I need it. :)

Heavens, I only have to do about half those things before I leave on Wednesday and I'm feeling exhausted. Good thoughts headed your way, and I'm drinking a glass of wine for you right now. It's a nice Syrah with vaguely chocolatey undertones, just so you know.

Just wanted to say, Happy Early Thanksgiving to you and your family. I hope everything goes smoothly and your holiday is filled with loads of laughter, memories and FOOD!

Yikes, that's a load but quite expected when holidays roll around. I wish I could send some helpers to you but instead sending you energy and good thoughts!

Have a GREAT Thanksgiving with your family!!
