Hustle, bustle and santa baby ~

my sweet little
santa baby
isn't she a little doll ?
i played with the colors ~

Do any of you feel like the Christmas season just rushes by every year and you don't get half done that you intended to do ? It seems that every year is like that for me.

Each year I vow that *next year* I will make cookies for the neighbors, I will go Christmas caroling with the church, I will take time to do the special little touches, such as jars outside with candles, make those one of a kind gifts etc. and it just doesn't happen.

I don't know what to do to change the hustle and bustle that always seems to engulf me.

I have *to do* Christmas cards that sit on the table for a week or two and I write in a few here and there. Then the decorations, oh my, they get spread out all over the place, dining room table, kitchen, the floor... and then the house just looks like a wreck and spoils the whole meaning of the holiday. By the time I get everything where it goes the season is almost over.

I want to do better... I really do, but how to balance it all eludes me once again this year.

How do you balance it all and get those special things done ? Please do let me know. blessings~

Romantic Magazine~Dovetales

I will be the first one to admit that I am addicted to magazines...especially romantic ones. I subscribe to Romantic Homes,Victoria, Country Living, Country Home and this latest one Dovetales. I also pick up a few issues at the store including Somerset Life and Romantic Country. I am not sure if it was a one time promotion or if it is ongoing, but I got a year (4 issues) of Dovetales magazine free just for signing up and I absolutely love this winter issue. Enjoy and blessings!
