A Little Glimpse....otherwise entitled, I Am Not An Overachiever

I have 3 baskets of clean laundry and a BIG pile upstairs as well.

The schoolroom looks like Staples and Toys R Us blew up in a small confined area.

I have no Christmas lights up outside. No cute porch display. The wreath I made 2 months ago, is on the ground near my front door, along with a very festive Christmas pumpkin.

What? You haven't heard about the Christmas pumpkin? That's a shame you are so out of the loop(or I still have a pumpkin leftover from almost 2 moths ago) Whatever.

There will be no Christmas cards. Haven't bought them. Haven't taken some super cute picture of my growing precious boys to commemorate this time in their lives. Nope...and I don't plan on getting it done either. 

So...... MERRY CHRISTMAS from Us!

My super cool "don't you wish you were crafty like me" Advent calendar is a big piece of brown butcher paper taped to the wall-with index cards with gift bows stuck on them. Eat your heart out Pinterest!

I have a large stack of papers on my kitchen floor that need to go out to the burn pile.

I am not done or even close to being done with my shopping. I don't like shopping. I don't enjoy the crowds, the chaos, the big displays, the less than festive attitudes. So I shop online as much as I can to avoid all that stuff.

My Elf on the Shelf is pretty lame. I actually lost him 2 nights ago and couldn't remember where he was. So that was fun!

My sink is still the holding place for last night's dishes.

My floors look like I live on top of a dusty hill with 17 acres and 4 boys. Wait...nevermind.

I took the wrong bag to church on Sunday. So I had nothing for the boys to do. And if you attend a Presbyterian church and know how long those services are...you totally get why that's a big deal. I was digging thru my less than clean truck to find anything that could help then sit quietly. They ended up with pipe cleaners, a notebook and a thing-a-ma-jigger.

Hopefully you now feel better about yourself and/or the state of your house.

I'm going to go finish my left over Chick-fil-a sweet tea from last night.
