Note To Self About Christmas

Never again, but NEVER plan a party for the evening of the daughters' school parties day, and the last day of school before winter break.

Please, but please remember to wrap and label the presents as you get them, rather than stowing them unwrapped and unlabeled somewhere in the garage, playroom, my closet, linen closet, car, and lose 10 things you know you bought. The reason for this is, that on Dec 22nd, when you have three parties scheduled (your evening party, the girls' two school parties), you are attempting to find presents instead of cleaning like you are supposed to do, and even want to do!
