Twelve Days and Counting.....

Just a quick entry to note that things are going frighteningly well here in Basketland. All the large orders have been put to bed, including the Monster Order that puts our panties in a bunch each year. (Whew!) Aside from an awesome shipping dude we acquired this year (worth his weight in gold), our extra labor has been minimal.


So it's twelve days and counting until December 23. It's pretty much a love-hate thing this time of year... grueling and gratifying. But no matter what, December 24 is when family time begins, and we can't wait! We both survived crappy 3-week colds and Julie, a nasty stomach bug. On the plus side, neither one of us has snipped finger tips off with scissors or slashed open any body parts with utility knives. No hysterical meltdowns either. I did spill a pile of ravioli in one of my sneakers today, but that was a minor mishap.


Twelve more days? Bring it on...we're ready to handle anything!!!
