Sometimes you just have to admit defeat and realize that you can’t do it all…and that is the best gift that you can give to yourself!

As we said last week, things were kind of mixed up in the Sifted Together world.  I think that means that all of our ingredients were not sifted together at all.  We had lumps and bumps in our batter.  Lol!  Somehow, we simply lost our “recipe” and life started rolling out of control.

As we were talking last week, we realized that neither of us has finished our Christmas shopping; neither of us has decorated for Christmas…not even a tree up at either of our homes, and we are already exhausted.  How does that happen?  Anyway, we decided to give ourselves a break and abandon our semi-normal schedule for the next few weeks.  (You can do that when you are your own bosses. :-))  We’ll still be here, we just aren’t committing to when that will be.  Check in with us every so often through the holidays.  You never know what we might be up to.  And, it is possible that you may end up on our Christmas list…once we get around to checking it twice!

Please know that we greatly appreciate those of you who are faithful readers and those of you that stop by every now and then.  We enjoy what we do and that enjoyment is multiplied when we can share it with others.

We wish all of you, and those you love, peace, joy, and happiness in this holiday season.

Warmest wishes!

Tracey and Kris
