Sorting like mad...

So I spent the better part of this afternoon gathering my WIPs for the upcoming WIPocalypse. I faithfully photographed each one (to be uploaded at a later this month). I didn't even bother to get the bin out of the closet. Truthfully, those projects are all big and I'm not even gonna make the attempt.


A couple things came out of today's endeavors:

1. I have a crap-load of WIPs.
2. I'm going to have an even bigger pile after January.
3. I'm going to have to tweak my Crazy January list because I want to start a few of the projects now and make them into WIPs instead of Crazy January projects. (my thought process here is that I might then actually complete the January challenge in 2012! Setting myself up for success and all that.)

I wrapped a few gifts and put them under the tree. The living room is now relatively well-decorated for Christmas and I've even managed to get it cleared of the junk we accumulate in there almost daily. Of course, I can't speak for the rest of the house.

I don't know about y'all out there in blogland, but I personally like the bell-ringers this time of year. I like to hear the bells ringing and I like to put change in the buckets every time I go to the stores. Sometimes it's only pennies, sometimes it's over a dollar. Obviously, some of the bellringers are more enthusiastic than others, but I don't mind. I guess they are, for me, a potent reminder of how much I am blessed and how important it is to remember others in this season (and all year lng.)

I have an online class coming up in May, so this has given me the incentive to get my WIPs ou of the way. If only the children could give me a few hours of peace.
