How Did this Happen?

I clearly remember saying that we were going to keep our schedules empty in December. That we were going to make time for candles and cocoa and driving to look at lights.

So how is it that I'm looking at a calendar with something marked down for 14 of the first 20 days in December? Insanity, that is.

And frustrating, too. I want to do every single thing that's on the calendar. But I also want to sleep - and finish my Christmas shopping. Gosh, at this point I'd settle for being able to finish my grocery shopping.
