Oh no...
...here we go.
HOW does one do it? High school basketball season starts today, tho football season still isn't over. So I have to go to the football games on Friday nights to watch my girl cheer (not that it's a chore, it's just a pain getting ready and spending 2 hours there), and her first basketball game is today, and I watch her play (senior starter, this is finally HER year, whoo!) then watch her cheer for the boys' team at least 'til after the cheerleaders' halftime dance. They play bball 2 or 3 times a week, so there goes another 9 hours.
Then there's Thanksgiving. I don't have it at my house, we go to my mom's 6 hours away, but I have to bring a cooler full of food and certain ingredients she won't have and ZOMG I'll be NaNo-ing. And THAT's what's freaking me out!
How does one NaNo and do football and basketball seasons and Thanksgiving and also remember their mother's birthday and remember to feed the cats and bathe and get out of bed in the morning? It's too much! And yet I've won NaNo 3 times, once even with a book I'm proud of. (The other two are still WIPs.) I can do this. I CAN. I'm the Little Engine That Could. It's gonna kill me tho. *thunk* <--that was the sound of me dying.

I used Paint Shop Pro, I tried Photoshop, but it didn't make much sense after PSP so I reverted back. I did have a programme that coupled with PSP to do animations, but it doesn't work with Vista and my current version of PSP, so animated icons are a bust for me now *pouts*

Swimming in winter? INDOORS, I assume! Having extra stuff in December is worse even than November, I'd think. I love talking to another frazzled mom, lol. *holds you tight and commiserates*

I didn't sleep for about a week, then in the dr's office I suddenly got so sleepy she noticed it and was afraid to let me drive home. Somebody else drove me home and another person followed in their car. Talk about an embarrassment! Then I got a fever and slept for two days. Gah, what a loser. I'm fine now...though still a loser, dammit. Why can't I stay away from CC and where did hubby hide the credit card?????
