I'm dreaming of a white christmas

That's right I said it. Secretly I'm dreaming of a white Christmas and it being that ideal picture perfect movie Christmas. The kind of Christmas were we sip hot cocoa while gazing out the window at the drifting flakes, there would be a plate of cookies perfect for snacking, and everyone would be happy and pleasant.

The reality is if it does snow or as it happens more often ices it will not be ideal. It will be the stress while I work to cover shifts from home, keep everyone entertained, hope the hubs is either off due to weather and not driving around for his work. There will be the worry of did I lay in enough groceries or are we down to the last crust of bread and sip of milk (every storm it happens we run out of something "essential") or worst the last roll of toilet paper. The mad dash to get everything finished while being home bound and still semi secret. Without tears, injury (I'm notoriously clumsy), or a disaster in crafting.

The dead line for a lot of my to do list is drawing closer. I still need to finish gifts and mail them, write out the Christmas card, start baking cookies and making candy, not to mention finding something to wear (that's a whole other blog post), wrap the presents, stuff the stockings, and find the holiday cheer.  It always seems like I won't get it done unless I rush to the wire. So it's time for me to make my list and check it twice.

So while I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, I'll be just fine with a Christmas thats about 40 degrees and temperate. If your having a dream holiday send me a picture over in facebook land. You can find us at www.facebook.com/sweetmoeandco
