Remodeling a Vintage Farmhouse in the Middle of the Country
In my e-mail I have 31 folders.
Some of them are fancy with fancy names.
Like “Recipes I Hope One Day I Have the Courage to Make” and “Promotional Ideas I Should Have Thought Of” and “Stories I Want to Tell Someday.”
Folders so fancy that I want to add $5 dollar words to the titles like “plethora” and “myriad” and “amalgamation.”

I wish I were here.
I wish I were sitting here with my twin girls and a cup of hot chocolate.
If I were sitting here I might be inspired.
Inspired to read “A Christmas Carol” or make gingerbread cookies (which, if you know me, would be a great inspiration indeed).
Inspired to wrap packages with ribbons and bows.
Inspired to learn to play the guitar and start with “Jingle Bells.”
As I read blogs yesterday….all over blogland people were sitting by the fire and knitting and showing pictures of beautifully wrapped packages. There were pictures of delicious treats and tables that were ready for guests. It seemed like all of my fellow blog friends were calmly sitting down to a cup of tea.
Ready and waiting for Christmas to arrive.
Not me.
Not here.
You see, I’m so far behind and I’m worried I’m not going to catch up.
My list is too long and the time is too short.
But I’m going to try.
Even though, in my heart I’m wishing I was just sitting here.
Waiting for Christmas.
PS I just added a facebook page if you want to follow along. It’s listed as Thistlewood Farm.
