If we have not genuine grace in the family circle, all our outward and public plausibility merely springs from a fear of the world or from the slimy, putrid pool of our own selfishness. I tell you the home is a mighty test of character. What you are at home you are everywhere, whether you demonstrate it or not. -TALMAGE

Seven Quick Takes
1. I somehow agreed to do a Jesse tree ornament exchange thingy and finally finally got my ornaments sent off this morning, via airmail, to Illinois. Hallelujah.
2. Now I have to focus 100% on my Advent exchange thing. Oh my gosh. Once this is done that's IT.
3. Well, no, it isn't actually. Because I applied to take over the Local Area Co-Ordinator position for Operation Christmas Child. And I want to do it, I do, but man...I have to fill out an application and do an interview and...
4. Oh yeah, because I'm a masochist I also have been considering applying to become a La Leche League Leader. Another thing I super really absolutely want to do but...
5. Seriously? And Christmas is coming of course. But my gifts are not at all ready to go.
6. Which is a problem because we have guests coming for Christmas. And the other gifts need to be purchased, wrapped and mailed.
7. Which would explain why I am waking up in a cold sweat of panic in the night.
New rule. I'm not doing anything else.
Now go see Jen while I freak out over here.
