Currently...

 I had planned to launch into anniversary trip stories today, but alas, we got home just in time to go back on duty Friday night, spent all day Saturday messing with broken internet AND moving in two new tenants, and spent all day yesterday getting said new tenants settled. Have I had time to think or look over my pictures? Solid no.

Plus I'm trying to get the last touches put on the Christmas cards so I can mail them out - and menu plan so we can grocery shop - and prep for two more tenant interviews this week. I'll be lucky to change my socks and brush my hair!!!

So today...I'm hopping on the Currently...series to see what it is, exactly, that I'm currently doing! (These posts are inspired by Anne's blog.)

I'm currently...

...decorating... nothing, really! Our apartment is decorated. The community room is decorated. The landings are decorated. The outside of the building is decorated. Yes, indeedy! I think we are about done decorating and are into just enjoying all the decorating we did!


...feeling...frazzled, a bit. For all the work I do to get ready for Christmas ahead of time, I'm still feeling behind. Cards are not out yet, I still have a decent amount of shopping to do, and there are still many things to do here at WillowBridge for Christmas plans. I felt this same way last year, so it must just be a thing with this job. It'll come together. I'm not worried. It's just not as seamless as I'd like. Picture is a throwback to when I was trying to figure if I liked the two-tree look on either side of the TV. 


...sending...the cards! Just as soon as we finish prepping them. The cards turned out great, the letter is written (though the internet outage slowed me from printing them all as soon as I wanted) and I'm mid-addressing. Ryan's going to help me seal them and stamp the return address and then they can go out! I'll show them to you here in a few days! Meanwhile...this was last year's card prepping party!

...smelling...coffee!! Yes, it's 10 p.m. but we're both drinking coffee!! Last cup of the night. And it's DELICIOUS!!!!

...wrapping...NOT A SINGLE THING YET. Please see point #2 above. We do have gifts. And wrapping paper. Have we started? Nope. So I guess there is no picture on this one!

So in summary...currently...we need to GET IN GEAR!!!

I've been "in gear" and am about half done which is frustrating because I feel like we're soooooo close. I just stopped addressing our cards once I needed addresses (which I haven't followed up on) and then when we got to church yesterday, I realized I'd forgotten a few families. Tonight's plans: finish the tree (I hope) AND the cards!
