Sorry, i just don't have the time....

Here is a blanket announcement. I have a long list of all the things that I love to do but do not have time for:

• I do not have time to make Christmas cards
• I do not have time to scrapbook
• I do not have time to write
• I do not have time to be a decent RS president
  
• I do not have time to be sociable
• I do not have time to read anyones blogs anymore
  
• I do not have time to bake cookies
  

And related to those on facebook:

• I do not have time to be kidnapped to Cancun, London or any other place in the world
• I do not have time to build an army of Snowmen
• I do not have time to receive "cupcakes" or "Flowers" by facebook
• I do not have time to play scrabble online

Unfortunately the working full-time, being a Relief Society pres, having two young children and being out of money all the time is really getting to me. I have been sick, tired and sick again and i feel like i am about to keel over all the time.
I do however have time to love my children and am grateful for the smaller things in life: a Christmas tree, candles burning and my husband cooking me dinner after a long day. I am especially gratefull for Monty not choking to death on the marble he got down his troat the other day....

On a little brighter note: We celebrated Sinterklaas with my family on december sixth - as they do in the Netherlands and Belgium. We even got a special visit from Sint Nicolaas in Oma's and Opa's house!!
