The Count Down: 5 Days

I must be growing up because it only occurred to me this morning that there's only 5 days until Christmas.

The child in me is smiling with excitement.

Before Christmas To-Do List:
1. Shop for Ted's gift.
2. Bake Christmas day treats (an assortment of chocolate shortbread, shortbread, chocolate chip cookies and lemon bars).  I'm working on my homemaker skills.
3. Shop for kitty gifts.
4. Play the Charlie Brown Christmas album non-stop.
5. Watch Christmas movies (non-stop).
6. Pick out the perfect Christmas day outfit.
7. Cross my fingers that my computer will be back by then.
8. Workout plenty (only to indulge more during Christmas feast).

I hope everyone else's 5 day countdown is less crazy than mine.

  1. Shortbread is the ultimate! I love enjoying mine with tea. You do have a lot to do but if you think about it baking/watching movies/listening to Charlie Brown Christmas can be done in combination :) More time for shopping.

  2. So true! Thanks!

    I'm planning on a baking/Christmas-media extravaganza on Christmas Eve (partly because I'll get me in the mood for Christmas, partly because I don't/didn't have time 'til then).

    You should send me your address and I'll send you some shortbread! :)
