I finally got the time to sit down and write a little about my progress through this challenge. I felt very much accomplished by completing the list and starting my blog but even through I am only a few days into the project I feel like I should have several things ’accomplished’ off of this list. I have been taking my daily vitamin and hope that I should start feeling the effects of that soon.
Now that I have started this – I am dreading doing my laundry! HaHa. I have the hardest time getting it all washed, folded and put away! Getting it washed a folded was always part of my normal routine until the twins were born. My mother in law ends up finishing up the wash because I get it started then I forget about it – well more side tracked. I am thinking if I pace myself by doing one load a day, wash, fold and put away the goal of getting my laundry where it belongs should be accomplished. This first time – getting all of the laundry put away as I have stacks everywhere will be a project. Two baskets in my room, two in the older girls room and towels on my dining room table that I still need to put away let alone the laundry that I still need to wash…uck!
I have already started thinking of things for our handmade Christmas – I am planning for this to happen Christmas ’10. I know I can make the kids PJs, hats, scarves – maybe even a quilt. The kids obviously would like toys or games – so I am going to think that route too. Suggestions would always be appreciated!

I try to do one load of laundry too! Sometimes I do two if I know I'll be gone all day the next day. I also make my own laundry detergent. I'll e-mail the recipe to you. It worked out to like 5cents a load.
oh i love the idea of handmade Christmas gifts. When my son was i think 20 yrs old...i did not have money for Christmas gifts. I had saved a bunch of his old favorite tee-shirts as they wore out and made him a quilt out of it.
