Horizontal weekend update:

That pretty much sums it up. Oh, there were plans. Lots of plans. Involving a plethora of places and faces and the anticipation of much progress and many checkmarks. But instead, I had a meltdown and all that went out the window. I was feeling alternately remorseful for caving and relieved to be let off the hook. It was especially comforting to have my family members tag-team pamper me. And now, when it's time to go to bed and sleep some more, I read a few blogs and discovered that, lo, I am not alone in this phenomenon. There seems to be a collective exhaustion going around. And with any luck, tomorrow, we'll ALL feel better. Because, as the old adage goes: when the going gets tough, the tough get going. We're all in this together.

I can point to one accomplishment: the 2009 calendar of family is complete and on the way to my inlaws in FLA. We all pitched in with our photos from this past year and
it's the finest gift we can give them. Two January birthday gifts: CHECK!
