I have so many projects I need to do and finish by the end of the year. I dont feel like doing anything except playing with my kids and reading books.

I have to big shows that I need to make about 500 lbs of soap for the end of June and Mid July. I also need to make about 300 bottles of lotion. Who knows how many lip balms I will also have to pour.

I have 2 stocking that I need to start and finish for my boys by Christmas.

I also need to make 2 sweaters for the boys before the weather gets cold again. I have all the yarn, and I have figured out how big they need to be. I have a knitting machine, so it will only take a few days to do both.

We will be also selling at an 8 week RenFair. So I need to make at least 4 tops for each boy, this includes DH. Because they are messy, and will need something to change into if they get food spills or fall in the mud again this year. I also could use about 4 new Chemise and a couple new dresses, last festival I was pregnant. This starts in September.

I need to get out the rest of the baby's announcements. He was born at the end of Feb. At least I have already sent out the ones with thank you notes.

I have most of the stuff to make roman blinds for the bedrooms and for the living room and dining room. I love to sew, but I dont feel like making these either. Although we really need these, and I know I will love them when they are finished. I purchased embroidered silk for these, need to fine the correct lining materiel.

I also need to clean and reorganize the soap and sewing room. The soap room is not too bad, but the sewing room is another issue. I have a problem and I keep buying fabric, like they are never going to make any more so I need to stock up. I have a large collection of Linens and silks in all colors min 5 yrs each. These need organized.

Do you have a long list of things to do also?
or How do you get yourself going?

Well, here I am up at 4 AM because my list is so long....you sound a bit like me....always lots of irons in the fire. Some days I make a list and that inspires me to get going....it's a good feeling to cross off the finished jobs. But most of all, I just wish there were more hours in the day! But reading all that is on your list has exhausted me....I'm going back to bed! LOL

Keep Smiling.....Bev

Hi ladies-

My list isn't as long as yours, but I do feel busy.

I have a stack of diapers to hem for Nora as we have to do laundry once a day right now and sometimes if she is really messy we might run a load in the morning and one at night.

I have garden areas that need weeding and digging, plants and seeds that need to be put into the ground.

I also have a few other small projects too, but those are the main ones.
