The following is what I've done so far this weekend:
bake 2 cakes
made 3 batches of cookies
made and jarred a batch of strawberry margarita preserves
Made and jarred a batch of Hot pepper jelly.
Filled out and have ready for stamps tomorrow all my Christmas cards (except local ones)
Got to the 1/2 way mark on the Afghan I'm making for my Aunt - the one I started on Monday.
Got 3 rooms of my house clean....the kitchen has had numerous cleanings from all the cooking.
Attended my husband's work party last night.
Got my hair permed
Got my beef bone broth simmering (it simmers for 72 hours)
Got easy child's box of Final's Survival goodies packed and ready for the mail.
And this is my only EASY weekend this month!!!
Next weekend I have all the baking for the gift boxes being mailed out to friends and family across country.... only 8 boxes worth to bake for. Then the next weekend I bake for all the local gifts...only 15 different families!
I have my work party to attend.
My brother in law and sister in law will be getting married next weekend. husband and I are the witnesses. Found that out yesterday!
I still have 9 more crochet/knit projects that need to be done before christmas.
I haven't even started to decorate.
Oh and now husband and I are hosting a reception for brother in law and sister in law the DAY AFTER Christmas!!!!! As soon as my soup is done cooking, I'm on my way to see what a banquet room at the local hotel will cost. That would be better than trying to have my house "guest" ready the day after Christmas.
AND....I get to watch Grandma from Dec 27th thru Jan 3rd! What a way to end the crazy month!!!
Wish me luck ladies. I have no clue how I'm going to get it all done and/or survive it all.
