Life has been hectic here, as I am sure it has been for a lot of other people. Someone gifted us a Thanksgiving dinner, complete with turkey and everything. I had never cooked a turkey before Thursday and it terrified me to bits, but it isn't any worse than some other stuff I've made.
I'm trying to make a list of all the gifts and/or people that need to be taken care of this year and every time I try to do it, someone gets left off or forgotten.
Let's see:
my husband-maybe a firewood carrier or a book of coupons (like this is good for one date night or one night off from the chores)
my oldest boy-4- a backpack for library books
little girl-almost 3-need to make her pj's, an apron and chef's hat and a backpack
my youngest boy-almost 1-won't really understand what's going on and has a birthday in the next couple of weeks, need's pj's (maybe my favorite butt-flap sleeper) and maybe a shirt and tie to match older brother?
all of the other family- make spice ornaments in their initials
my secret santa sibling-finishing a twin size quilt, scarf in school colors, pampered basket
and maybe something special for myself since my husband says he has no idea
I also want to make some stuff for another little girl, almost 2 whose dad was laid off about a month ago, I gave her a cabbage patch doll the last time they were over, so maybe a new outfit and a bag for dolly?
I also have to come up with two birthday presents for my son's friends and for myself and my youngest son and make a dress for my SIL to give to someone else
I need to get busy, but I finally made it into my sewing area yesterday and cleaned like crazy. I will also take the time tonight to set up my cutting board and try to cut out all the projects.
