At some point you have to ask yourself.....

....when did I lose control? Have I completely lost my mind??

For me, that moment was tonight, the day before the last day of preschool, as I left the house at 9 p.m. in search of 9 presents for teachers gifts. And then again, at 10:30 p.m., as I cranked out hand made corresponding Starbucks gift card holders.

Stuck 'em to these super cute cookies I actually hauled back from Toronto (more on that trip later).


Did I mention I have to get up at 5:30 a.m. for boot camp, followed by work and 2 kids soccer games (not to mention a certain game 7 in the Stanley Cup)? Or that I have not yet unpacked my suitcase from Sunday from my trip? Or that due to the lack of groceries in my house I haven't eaten a fruit or vegetable in 2 days, unless you count those found on pizza or the ketchup with my fries?

Anyways, time to pack it in for tonight. But I think they turned out pretty cute.


Now just have to get 2 bags made in time for a birthday party this weekend.....

  1. A+. That is your grade in a little something I like to call "CRAZY." Cute card holders, though.

  6. Yep-stone cold crazy . I suspected it from the start but now you've confirmed it.

    Although I kinda wish I was one of your kids teachers....

    PS. Fruits and Vegetables are highly over rated.

  13. Yep that sounds crazy all right! :-) These are cute gifts. How is it that you have 9 teachers to give to? Do you count TA's etc?

  14. Ha, I definitely feel that way once in a while! Almost always related to a next-day deadline where something has to be finished :) Those are really adorable gifts-- it's awesome you found time for the extra special touches you put on them!

  15. LOL, sounds a lot like my life! Why do we do this to ourselves? : ) There are just never enough hours in the day. Well, they're very cute gifts - there's nothing like a little handmade something to show your appreciation to special teachers.
