No Applause For Me!

Well, let’s see. I got 24 articles done which isn’t bad considering that I had a kid’s Christmas party to attend, and then after coming home I fell into a dead sleep. That means I was sleeping at 6:05 PM. Do you know what that also means? I woke up at midnight wide awake. Yep – and I have been up ever since.

My son did well for himself though, he got his own pajamas on and went to bed. I have no idea what time, or if he ate anything besides what he could reach, but I know he didn’t burn down the house or break anything :) I had no intention of sleeping, I was “just resting my eyes.” Yeah right! Now, I’m exhausted again and I have to start more writing.

I didn’t get the Christmas cards, or the address. I didn’t shop, I didn’t buy shoes for Matthew, and I didn’t plan the party. Although thankfully my friend Millie agreed to co-host so that takes a lot of pressure off, and we postponed it till next weekend! WOOOHOOO!! So, technically I can take that off of my list.

So, officially, I didn’t complete anything on my list. But listen… I tried real hard, and it is the effort that counts – right? RIGHT??!!

    I’d say effort is 99.99999999999% of the battle. and who cares about that other minuscule percentage? ;-)
