I should have stuck with the norm of having low expectations! (It has it's place, I promise. Especially with pregnancy, labor, and raising children. Just imagine nothing will go right, and you'll always, always be pleasantly surprised!)
Anyhoo. Back to my dashed high hopes.
On the agenda included catching up with all my blogging. But, you won't care about reading about my summer travels in January, right? I had hoped to finally start blogging all the 100 posts I have ready to blog about on the other blog too. But, you won't care about reading about the 500 ways you can do ghost treats and cupcakes at Easter, right? Maybe you could take the ghost ideas and adapt them to rabbits. They're both white, so I guess that might work... I had planned to do a grand re-opening of my Etsy store, and finally include all the other stuff I make, with an unveiling of my logo finally. Ummmm, that didn't happen. I had also planned on including my new onesie to try and raise money during breast cancer awareness month. Well, I guess I'll be prepared for NEXT October. I had also hoped to have a new online sight up and running or at least STARTED. Yeah, that didn't happen either. Not. Even. Close. I had planned on throwing Mallary a birthday play date. (Which I had actually wanted to do LAST year...) So, I can use all the stuff I have bought the last TWO years NEXT year for her birthday. Hopefully... Let's see... what else? I didn't decorate for Halloween. We (I include a 'we' here, because John could have remembered too) forgot to buy candy to give out during trick-or-treating (which happened on Saturday night in our neighborhood). I had planned to start getting back to the gym REGULARLY now that Jonah is six months old. That hasn't happened either. (I'm hoping to change that TODAY.) I had hoped to clean my work room... if you could peek through this computer and see the mess around me, you would know that didn't happen either. I can't even remember all the other stuff I wanted to get done, but didn't.
High hopes... I totally thought I would be able to do all that stuff.
I did, however, do at least thirty two loads of laundry, make at least twenty dinners, pack at least twenty lunches, go to the grocery store at least five times, change at least seventy diapers etc. etc. etc. etc.
I have low hopes for November. I'm keeping my list to just a few things....
(Okay, I'll be honest,
there is a list of 700 things I would
love to accomplish this month,
really, you should see the 'to do' list in my brain.
BUT, I know I'll only be able to get to the first three...)
Stay tuned to the post about all the ghost treats! Really, you could use them at Easter...
