I'm in desperate need of more time. I could probably use some discipline as well. I traditionally put up my Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. My work schedule got changed so that I'm off today instead of tomorrow when I would have had M,T,W and Thanksgiving Day off. I'll work tomorrow and have T,W, and Thanksgiving Day off instead. Started putting my tree together today and due to my lack of self discipline, I have only completed part of the bottom third of the tree. Following my 12 hour work day tomorrow, I have to stop at the grocery store and get my turkey so that can thaw, pick up a couple other things. I need to get my apartment cleaned, Thanksgiving dinner cooked, finish at the very least getting my tree finished even if I don't get a single piece of decoration on it. I've got to bake cookies for my son which means if my daughters find out I will need to bake equal amounts for them; the problem is which daughter is first? If I bake for my (self-described) red-headed step-child who suffers from middle child syndrome she will have another red-headed middle child syndrome thing under her belt ... but if I bake her cookies last ... it might be worse. I have laundry to wash, already done laundry to fold, grocery shopping for my little lady on her debit card, grocery shopping on my card, a Keurig coffee maker my children gave me for my birthday to get set up so I can actually have a first cup of coffee when I wake up rather than having to wait an hour or so later when I've gotten to work. And the list goes on and on and on .......
