This weeks schedule is very busy for me. I am a little stressed (although that is completely normal for me) but on the upside I am excited about everything that I have to do. This week we are turning our office into a much needed guest bedroom which means a lot of dismantling furniture, throwing things out, and reorganizing the house. Up until now our office has been the catch all room so you can imagine the disaster area we had to clear out. I have been racking my brain on where we will put all of the stuff we have in there from books, to files, to wedding presents and projects. It seems as though after the wedding we have outgrown our fairly newly purchased condo. Excitingly enough I was able to find a mattress, comforter, sheets, and a coverlet this weekend without too much trouble. The bed has just been delivered to the house and I'm excited to get everything put together and see the finished product!
Also this weekend my friend is throwing a dessert and cocktail Christmas party. I am helping her with some of the desserts so I will be getting to make some of my favorite holiday recipes this week as well. I'm bringing tiramisu and peppermint bark - I'll share these recipes later on in the week!
As for the rest of this week, I will be busy finishing my book for book club, mailing out Christmas cards, wrapping presents, and finishing up some Christmas shopping. I also have a cute Christmas project that I am doing for the grandmothers of the family that hopefully I can share with you all this week for a pretty cheap and easy Christmas gift.
Thanks to my new found crack the Starbucks Espresso Truffle (which I am currently drinking if you couldn't tell) I believe I can get this all completed. Hopefully this feeling of "I can conquer the world" will continue throughout the week. Go, Go, Go!
