400th Post?!?!?!

I can't believe this is my 400th post!

I've been blogging for a little over a year, so that means I have posted nearly everyday! WOW!

Enough about that. Let me update you on my weekend accomplishments:

~ I got my freezer defrosted! Not very riveting for you new readers, but for those who have been following, I'm sure you feel a sense of relief. LOL!

~ I talked the kids into helping me haul Christmas decorations up from the basement and the Fall stuff back down there. I even got several areas decorated. I may still change some stuff, but I'm making progress.

~ I also found my plastic tote full of Christmas craft stuff BEFORE it is too late to make anything. Let me tell you that every year I have intentions of making all kinds of gifts, but by the time I actually find the stuff I bought last year, it is so late and I'm already bogged down and I only have time to make one or two things.

That's about all for now, but I still have a couple of days to get more things together.

I went through my list that I made last year after the season was over and I'm SO GLAD I MADE THAT! It helps so much to have everything all written down for me and I don't have to start from scratch. I have my list of what we had for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and for the party I have for my babysitting families. I also have a list of what I take to other gatherings we go to. I have a size chart ready to fill in, a list of gift ideas and a list of service people we give small gifts to (teachers, mail/paper carriers, bus drivers, etc.).

Its also a good thing I wrote all of this out rather than put it on the computer somewhere. I doubt that I have enough Dell Memory to store it all!! LOL!

Well, back to the grind!
