Exhausted!!

I am SOOO tired. I have been sewing and crocheting like crazy this Christmas season! I can't wait to share pics of some of the stuff I have made...I'm very proud but some that might read this or pass the info along will have something on there! I spent 12 hours yesterday working on one gift! Yes, 12 hours! Okay, that does include getting the kids ready and Devon off to school...along with meals and such but still 12 hours! I couldn't sleep and ended up getting up about 4:30am-5am...so I started cutting out the pieces, ironing the fabric, etc. About 5pm, it was FINALLY done. I love how it turned out tho and hope the recipient likes it too. Today I spent several hours working on a little BIG gift for one of my nephews. I think he's going to love it, but wow, when the idea was in my head it didn't seem like so much work! That is how most of my projects have turned out...to be a bit more work than I planned on. They seem so clear and simple in my head! At least, so far, they have ended up looking like what I had in my head! Just a few more projects and then I AM DONE! And I will finally be able to enjoy the holidays, I hope!


On top of all the work, I am not sleeping very good! I'm running on less than the needed hours of sleep and the new birth control pill is sending my hormones on a roller coaster ride. I'm waiting for all that to settle down! Current mood: short-tempered and big mouthed! I apologize now for anything that I may say in this state! Just remember, I am running on little sleep, messed up hormones and working my butt off while gaining an insanely stupid amount of weight for no reason! I'm trying to be happy about what I can but hey, some things just aren't in our control!
