First of all, I am completely and totally NOT ready for the holidays. I am so freaked out that we're already in November that I can't think straight...I don't know why I am freaked out...I mean, I went through all of the days in October and shouldn't have been suprised what was going to happen. It's not like the days of the months are randomly pulled out of a hat!

However, suddenly on November 9th, I am wondering how the heck I am going to get it all together...

Thankfully, we go away for Thanksgiving (so it's not like I have to organize a menu and shop for food) - but the road trip still takes planning and coordination - especially with two kids and two dogs...

And let's not even discuss Christmas. AAACK!!
