Your post leaves me breathless.

My days are similar, but I don't think I packed nearly as much in. YOU ARE A MACHINE!

Glad you got so much done, now relax and enjoy an eggnog!

I've got all my bases covered--plenty of food for all meals for which we will be home for the next several days, clean pig cage, plants watered, remembered stocking stuffers before Christmas Eve eve. The only thing that is questionable is Gryphon is almost out of dog food. Other than that, I have cleared my plate of responsibilities.

Having a glass of red wine as I type!

I hope you are also able to put your feet up and chill with a glass of whatever floats your boat :D

You are insanely determined. At some point during this, I think that I'd curl up and bury my face in the pillow, take a "five minute" nap from which I wake three hours later, than be like oh well, not enough time to do everything. Better off doing none of it.

I'm glad that you got it all done!

I'd rather bust my ass for a few days so that I can spend the weekend doing nothing ;P

I just hope some of my productivity carries into getting some writing done.

Man, I need your determination to get things done. I spend two or three hours acting like an adult outside of work then go "no no no" and give up.

Every time I watch Restaurant: Impossible I think of you xD

Have a happy holidays!

When I have a job outside the home, it will be a much different story LOL As long as the pets don't get neglected it will be fine.

There is a show called Restaurant: Impossible? Must check it out!

Oh, the pets will not let you neglect them xD

It's a great show! It has Robert Irvine saving failing restaurants in 2 days on $10,000. Makeovers and new menus and generally bitching at the people in charge for being idiots, too.

So when I think about your friends, I wish them far better luck/skill than these people have xD

My friend has been in the restaurant industry for fifteen or twenty years. He has a lot of things going really well right now (apart from the ridiculous wait to get into the space) so I hope nothing happens to change that!

Geez. I just got my tree decorated *today* (and managed to smash my favorite ornament while doing it - still very upset about that, several hours later). And presents are wrapped. But that was about all I had to do anyway, lol. I'm so impressed with you!

I hope the restaurant gig goes well. I seem to recall that they really wanted to open before Christmas, so that sucks. Still, good food is never something to be turned down! :)

I'm sorry that your favorite ornament broke! There are a few that would make me cry if they couldn't be fixed.

Considering that they just got in there on the first of December, I'm amazed at the amount they've gotten done. Tile goes down on Monday and that will make it look even more different.

I totally feel you on underestimation of time - I mucked up my 'home' schedule something fierce, and now I'm sweating bullets that I won't get this last giftfic done on time. ARGH. Who knew that going home would mean people would actually want to spend time with you? :P

Congrats on getting it all done, though - this time of year is absolutely ridiculous.

LOL I know--I thought I'd be able to get everything done in one afternoon, not over the course of three days.

Good luck finishing the giftfics! You can do it!
