1) Holidays = insane. Again. I was going to make presents - and I still plan to - but they may be Chinese New Year presents at this point.

2) Cards = This yeah I'm only doing them for people I have addresses for and talk to a lot. You probably know who you are.

While I love that my f-list is so generous and awesome, I've sent out over 100 cards for the last two years, and I simply can't afford that much postage, let alone the actual cards. My apologies.

3) I haven't written a word in two weeks. I think it's time to find the Viking helmet and go to battle against writer's block.

Mostly it's that my couple is having a very bad spot in their relationship and I love them and don't want them to be sad, but oh, they are sad. Some writers are good at hurting their characters. For me, it feels too personal and I hurt when they do.

4) The thankfulness meme has been kind of amazing. It puts me into a positive-thoughts mood for the rest of the day, and makes me thankful for things I take for granted. I totally recommend it, even if you only do it from now til the end of the month.

I can't believe there's a month until Christmas. I'm so not ready.

I'm completely in love with your Viking helmet now. ♥

For me, it feels too personal and I hurt when they do

YES. Good luck with your block. I tried to write last week for the first time in forever. It wasn't pretty.

I haven't been on LJ this week because of RL craziness but I've been continuing the thankfulness meme in my head. I know I've said it before but really, truly, thank you for getting me onto that, because it's really helped keep me positive.

*hugs*

I am not going to be ready this time. I emailed everyone I was making stuff for and told them they might get them for Valentine's Day.

I'm glad the meme helped you - it was surprisingly rewarding for me to do, too. I will have to remember it the next time I get blue.
