Things have been a bit crazy around here...what with the lists and the Christmasing in full-swing. My kids and husband have been home for a couple of days and so I've been trying to finish my list on the sly.

But I finally laid the list to rest last night. Finished the grocery shopping and the Christmas shopping, the mailing (!), the annual service project, the wrapping (mostly!), the hand-made gifts, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, and all the rest. I even made gingerbread twice this year...a first for me...I just pulled the last little men from my oven.

Deep breath.

I'm tired. And at last, "listless."

Today we played monopoly. I don't know if I've ever finished a whole game of monopoly, but today we did. I had Park Place and Boardwalk, but I still went bankrupt. Sounds about right.

We took the kids to a movie, and then went and saw the lights at the temple.

Made me wonder why I think so much of lists in the first place.
