Making a list and checking it twice

i've come up with a complete, i think, list of what i must be accomplished between now and the 26th (yea, can't sleep in or do fun shopping on this day!). as long as the other shoppers, drivers, and stores cooperate, i'll be right on schedule, and still have some time for a few holiday shows and knitting. am looking forward to planning time off in 2008, probably starting in early january! am getting more excited about the holidays, all of the furniture is finally in, so i think after 19 months in our house we're finally settled.

GRATITUDES:
♥i'm thankful for each day i make it to work and back home safely
♥each day of exercise
♥having a very small list of people to buy gifts for this year
♥our mail lady, Cindy, who has been delivering our mail for almost 18 years, even though we moved, we're still on her route, she routinely goes beyond the call of duty-like bringing the mail to the door when mom had her knee surgery, when i had my car accident, etc. she has literally watched my boys grow up, how cool is that?! thinking fingerless gloves for a belated C.mas gift or for next year an early gift.
