Time

Time, I seem to be so short on these days. Not enough to get everything that I have to get done, DONE!
Last night Caleb came down sick and it has ran over into today. So between trying to get stuff done and take care of him, I find myself stressing out. Of course I know that there really is not a thing that I can do about it, but it is so frustrating to me.
I am just going to have to deal with the fact that I did not get all the Christmas gifts that I wanted to get for everyone, I did not get my house work done, laundry caught up, nor do I have enough $$$. But God is good and I need to rest in him. My goal for 2009 is to be a good steward of my time, not sure how to go about doing it, but I have to do it.
Can anyone share how they manage to get everything done, or some tips on time management.

10 days & counting

10 shopping days untie Christmas. We had our church Christmas program it was Awesome! we sold one 3,000 tickets-yes 3,000- from that we had several give their lines to Christ! Praise God. Pastor spoke Sunday morning about "Let it be Believe! it Was so moving about now Many just simply. Let it be. When She had every right to fight; be afraid; be ashamed she just told Gabriel. "Let itBe ! what faith; what inspiration Paul McCartney had a song about the very subject-let it Be; averse says-when mother Mary comes to one with words of wisdom. LET IT BE! Hmmm a Song that is so public - played on major radio stations-guying a message of hope-encouragement, let it M

sigh

15 shopping days left! YIKES!!!!!!!
I have nothing done yet. the time has flown by!

I usually have SOMETHING done by now, but not this year. I am getting so forgetful and then things just happen and I am not allowed to get everything done that I want or need to get done. So that being said, Christmas might be a little slim this year.
Saturday we have my work party, Sunday we will be at church most of the day, as Michael has to work both morning services (he is part of the security department ministry)and then we have our Christmas program that night, so it is going to be a jam packed weekend and laundry will have to wait as will the rest of the house.
I did manage to make 3 cheesecakes for Michaels work. They were by request, I just pray that they are good.
I did not get Christmas cards this year as I did not have the time to do even that, So I am going to try to get a cute picture of the kids and send emails to everyone. So please do not think that I have forgotten you, it is just me getting senile and forgetful. well love to all.

sunday project

This is the end result of a Sunday afternoon project...Caleb was so excited to decorate this. I found this kit at Wal-mart and I want to get more and save to decorate again. it was good practice for me (I am wanting to learn to decorate cakes)to release the creative side of my kids. I had to let creative reign go and let them do it. I did most of the icing, but once in place they had free reign. I was very impressed with the job that they did. Caleb did most of the work as Audrey was all about eating the candy as fast as Caleb could put it on. At one time she had about 3 gum drop gandies in her mouth. here is some other views
