Eeeeep!

You know those weekends where you have loads of plans and a time table that, if followed perfectly, will ensure that you get everything done?

And you know how plans always fall apart due to miscalculations like running out of mince meat and cats knocking over the Christmas tree?

Yeah.

The good news is that it was only the little tree downstairs and it was easy to fix. The tree is now being hidden under the stairs unless I'm at home and awake to supervise.

And I've got more mince meat marinating so the mince pies for the work thing on Wednesday can still happen.

OK, yes, no cards got written and I'd planned to have the pies made and ready to bake so that Tuesday evening would be less fraught...

I love Christms but I always get over confident about my plans. At least my Yuletide fic is pretty much done and will be uploaded tomorrow. How is everyone else doing on the Christmas insanity?

Please don't let that be a cat with a bauble that I can hear...

Yes! I call it the Christmas Crazy. It's so much fun, but when something slips....

I hope you catch up soon! My crazy weekend went remarkably well. I'm just procrastinating on Yuletide right now. Why is it so hard to write those last few paragraphs?! (Answer: because then I have to edit!)

Haven't you learnt yet that you have to have some sacraficial baubles on the lower branches of the tree just for the cat?

Our latest cat doesn't seem that interested, but it was one of our quietest cats that loved playing with the baubles.

I'm now on holiday from school, so can concentrate on things like the decorating.
