gooood morning!

I keep kissing and hugging my cat and serenading him with Queen's You're My Best Friend. Is that weird?

He seems to like it.

OMG so much baking to do! Must stop saying that and actually START BAKING!!! And the holiday cards are NOT going to write themselves, missy!! But it's so cold and I'm snuggled in my pink fuzzy robe with my kitty and movement just seems wrong!!

And yet, I'm still hyper!

God. The house is such a spectacular mess. It's like Christmas threw up everywhere. Boxes and boxes and boxes. And I've been so swamped that I haven't been able to keep up with everything! And then when there is chaos I get all deer-in-the-headlight-y!

So must set some goals NOW and not stare in confusion.

Priority for today is baking! I hurled myself into the kitchen, and even though it's a mess in there, started a batch of the cranberry shortbread. While that's baking I'm going to prep the second batch of it and decide what cookie to make next AND more importantly, load dishes into dishwasher!

Days like yesterday, I can be super organized. Days like today, there's so much to do, I just need to flail myself into a starting point so I don't freeze up in a panic!

Absolutes for today:

- BAKE as many cookies as humanly possible
- Write and mail as many holiday cards as possible

I'm also making Jeff pasta puttanesca tonight and taking it over to his house. Poor Brutus is still under the weather, and Jeff's gone home to be with him and monitor him. Please send Brutus all your good kitty thoughts for today. He's not in immediate danger, but we're hoping this isn't the start of something more serious.

So you see, I don't have time to sit around and dither!! No dithering time today!!

*whipcrack* Back to the kitchen!
