<\/p>\nI have a ton of stuff I should be doing.
\nI need to finish cleaning my kitchen, as I’m hosting a big brunch here on Sunday.
\nI need to flippin clean up my office. It’s a disaster.
\nI need to wrap some presents, because I have a huge pile of shipping boxes and shopping bags not so skillfully hidden in my bedroom.
\nI need to make my treat to take to the Relief Society party tonight.
\nI need to go out and check on my chickens and see if they’ve left me a very cold egg.
\nI need to hem those pants for my daughter, that she left hanging on my sewing chair.
\nI need to finish arranging my furniture in the front room that got rearranged by the Christmas tree.
\nI need to haul about 60 pounds of crap from the basement to the garbage.
\nI need to take a shower and get ready for the day. I get to teach 1\/2 day at the Jr High today (woo-hoo).
\nI need to start a load of laundry.<\/p>\n
And yet, here I sit, writing Tillamook Cheese Christmas carols for a contest.
