I believe this Holiday/Christmas pressure is strictly a female thing ~ I mean have you ever seen a man stressing to get his cards out on time, or trying to get all the grocery shopping done before XMas Eve? What about a man having anxiety over not having all the wrapping done or having the perfect decorated tree? Of course not, because us women are doing all the above! ha! And because we are born with that gene that always desires the perfect Christmas with the best dinner and best table setting and so forth, we drive OURSELVES crackers! We don't even require any help, push or jab from our partner at this time of year ... we probably start going over the ~edge~ way back at the beginning of November. HA! Your card Lauren is sweet, and I for one like the sparkle/glitter all over the mushrooms as it reminds me of glistening flakes of glass reflecting in the sun. Really nice. Not to worry Lauren, December 25th will arrive same as it does every year, whether you have created and finished everything you wanted to or not. And I'm sure it will be a magical Holiday for you and your family, afterall, they have you as their Mom, Wife, Daughter, Sister, Aunt and we can't forget your most important job, their Christmas Organizer :) Happy Holidays!

Regarding thank you notes. I have given gifts and never received a thank you, either a card or a heartfelt verbal one. (as in not just thank you when you hand it to them but a real 'I opened it and it is great' type thank you). I still remember that, not bitterly but I remember. My advice, send the card no matter how long ago it was. I keep a list of gifts or kindnesses and tick off as I send them. Even if it is months later. They are always happy to get them!

I too started my Christmas stuff way early this year, and I am still scrambling to get it all finished. I still have presents to buy, lots to wrap, and worse; presents to make. AH! Load me up with caffeine, I've got work to do. so cute and I like the glitter.

Haven't even made the Holiday pic of the kids since everyone was sick for so long. Haven't made my Hanukkah cards either, and it's the 22nd!! ARGH! Well you know, sometimes that's just the way it is, I think everything will be late this year and I'm starting to accept it as a fact! ;-) The Holidays will be over before we know it, crazy....
