This week marked the start of feeling behind for Christmas. I told Jeremy that I don't think I have ever been so stressed about Christmas before. I have bought essentially nothing yet and what is worse, I don't have a game plan for what I am buying. This is not a feeling I enjoy.
It kind of feels like everywhere I turn, I'm being bamboozled. Before I can even get to Christmas planning, this week was Carolyn and Jeremy's birthdays. Luckily, Jeremy and I are giving each other a trip/concert for our birthdays so there was not too much to do on that front, mostly just planning birthday meals. For Carolyn on the other hand, I spent a long time trying to think of the perfect gift. I finally came up with an idea, but it required an old meaningful photo. Unfortunately, the ones I had access to were too low resolution. I asked AI to try and clean some photos up for me. The result was comical. Needless to say, I was back to the drawing board on the gift and ended up with something much less heartfelt.
Yesterday, Elsie had a birthday party to go to. CC decided to come along and after we dropped Elsie at the party, CC and I went shopping. She and I found some amazing deals and I got some ideas for Christmas, but unfortunately, I couldn't really purchase anything with my little helper in tow. Turns out she has become really fun to shop with though.
