Just very, very busy. With two different choirs preparing for multiple Christmas concerts, unexpected craft projects dumped onto my lap at the sewing cycle, and the charity fair little more than a week away, I barely have the time to put up the daily posts over at [livejournal.com profile] picowrimo. My apologies for being uncommunicative. I'll return to my (more) normal schedule, soon. On Sunday we'll have one concert with the Oldies and next Thursday the fair, after which only two other concerts and the Christmas baking remains, which is manageable. *falls over*

To put it mildly... It isn't so that I wouldn't enjoy all this - I really do. It's just so much, and detailled crafting is so time-consuming that I always seem to be behind schedule.

You are just a blur of activity! The holiday season is upon us!

Yeah, it's always stressful, but I can't remember it having been quite this bad, ever. Of course, I didn't sing in two choirs before, and the fact that my days are so impractically fractured doesn't help. It was easier when I had to sit at school for five to six hours and nothing useful to do but crafting most of the time. Well, in recent years anyway when Boss Woman no longer let me actually teach.

Well, then you need to learn how to say the hardest word in any language - No. Trust me, the first year is hardest.

The problem is, I actually enjoy doing all this shit. It's just so that there's never enough time to do it leisurely, which would be even more enjoyable.

Yup, but it's all about knowing when to say when. Too much of anything, even love, is not necessarily a good thing (Shades of The Trouble with Tribbles)

lol! Sounds about right for the season! On steroids, that is! I'm not nearly as busy as I used to get when I was younger and on my own. In fact.. I usually had a problem with sliding into a "manic" phase. Not healthy. I guess being somewhat of a recluse has its benefits.

Will you be able to get a vid of one of your performances to post? That would be super cool.

Oh! I sent the thimbles today. I went to a different post office than normal so I had to fill out the paperwork on my own. The local postmaster always does that for me. It felt so legit.

I'll try to post a vid if someone uploads it to YouTube. Unfortunately, they usually don't and I'm not on Facebook, where it sometimes appears.

Thank you for the thimbles. I must remember to send you that card next Monday when I'll (hopefully) post [livejournal.com profile] lindahoyland hers. I'm so horribly distracted it's not even funny!

Speaking of which, I'd actually need your address to do so. Can you PM it to me?

Lol. Make sure to look after yourself, so that you can enjoy Christmas when it arrives.

Oh, I do enjoy it, actually. It's just the day that's too short!

Yeah, I know. And I'll be unreasonably proud of myself afterwards. Getting there is the real difficulty, though. *g*

Doing something you love, even if you overdo, is enjoyable. The love is visible in your crafts, they are all precious!

Thank you, it's very kind of you to say so. :)
