Getting sick right before Christmas is not fun! Not fun at all. I know many of you have also struggled with your health this winter and some of you have been sick for way too long. I feel for you. A week and a half and a I still am not getting more than 4 hours sleep each night. Needless to say, it’s hard to get the house ready for the holidays when you feel like someone’s sitting on your chest. Not to mention spending the weekend in the hospital with my 11 yr old dear daughter…

I did it though. Thanks to the help of my sister-in-law {one of hubby’s older sisters} who helped me get organized and pushed me to keep going with her encouragement. Thanks Pauline!! She’s trying to start a blog, Nanny’s English Tea Room, give her a looky-loo! She’s a fabulous baker, just like her mom. 🙂

I still have so much left to do before Christmas. I have to pick up the kid’s teachers gifts, hubby’s gift, stocking-stuffers for the family, more butter for baking and a few things for friends. With only a few days left… I may need to clone myself.

Speaking of purchasing some more stuff… when you’re out and about, look out for Method’s holiday soap line. I’m loving my Method Candy Cane dish soap. Last week they were on the Nate Burkus show as the holiday must-have! It really does smell like Christmas when I’m doing the dishes. 🙂
