Fortunately it's one for my husband and he-will-understand. But otherwise, I'm not too bad on my preparations. I found out yesterday, I won't have any overnight guests now on the 25th so that has crossed a few things off my list like dusting the spare room, putting clean sheets on the bed etc. without me having to do anything! :-)Sue Doranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09253427020750012680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-57057306714112642392010-12-23T01:05:22.863+00:002010-12-23T01:05:22.863+00:00I have sooo many things to do.

We're sharing the list. I think because I write the blog it sounds like I'VE got all the things to do but we're working through The List together. But your friend's list idea is a good one!<br /><br />I hope all your Christmas prep is going okay, everyone?<br /><br />Laura xLaura Sparlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05291538001842729975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-46776821398779064682010-12-20T22:39:25.130+00:002010-12-20T22:39:25.130+00:00My friend Lucy from America told me of her favorit...My friend Lucy from America told me of her favorite to-do-list:<br />The "Honey Do List". <br />Maybe you should write one for Chris as well, just to take the load off of your shoulders. <br /><br />Well... I sat up half the night yesterday to finish a sweater for my father in law. Had to have it finished by today, as he came by for a short visit. I succeeded, but perhaps I should have started a little sooner? <br />Think i will start writing my lists by July next year... <br /><br />Have a great Christmas, Laura. <br /><br />~ KarinaFrau Putzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11624320651110519045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-5790118401281181912010-12-20T19:11:33.322+00:002010-12-20T19:11:33.322+00:00I have just read 'A Week Before Christmas'...I have just read 'A Week Before Christmas'.<br />That's a good bit of writing.<br />Good Luck with your list...XThe Beadfathernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-85829436146432903192010-12-20T16:59:06.800+00:002010-12-20T16:59:06.800+00:00I hope you're getting through your list, Laura...I hope you're getting through your list, Laura.

Hope you get all your list done, I have to admit, I haven't really done a thing, no cards, no real shopping. It's funny, and I suspect the same for a lot of people, I always have the best of plans, but, for some reason they never come off. Have a good day, very dark and white here.Kchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04895639949296185813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490460042834444771.post-21794610188372123822010-12-20T11:12:58.116+00:002010-12-20T11:12:58.116+00:00Oh that list thing is so familiar.

Good luck in your frozen environs, get everything ready enough and have a wonderful Christmas with your Chris (I have one too) and your families. Now for that recommended reading...Cassandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16692609452008320495noreply@blogger.com
