I Am So Ahead of Schedule

Wow, even I can't believe the progress I've made today.

I managed to review and update our Christmas card list and print it out for John's review before using it to address envelopes.  When I pulled the file, I noticed that I had done that job on the 26th of November last year -- so I'm two days early this year!

I figured out my annual "Stratford" chocolate order and got that all sorted out too (and even placed the order).  When I pulled the file, I noticed that I didn't place that order until the 26th of November last year -- two days ahead of time on that project too!

I even went downstairs and started the cards printing today -- and found out I don't have enough cardstock to do the complete job.  I probably don't have enough ink to do the complete job either since John likes to print photos to that printer too (we have many printers in this house).  But I did print as many cards as I could with the cardstock supply I have and I managed to get half what I need.

So, I placed an internet order for the supplies I need to complete the job -- the stuff will come tomorrow and I will be able to finish right on time!

How's that for good management -- and I didn't even  have to leave home.

As to the envelope addressing project that was on the agenda for today?

Done.

Complete.

Right down to the last name on the list.

All separated by destination (UK - USA - Canada National; Provincial; Local).

And we even have postage for a good lot of them.

So tomorrow after I cut and fold the ones that have already been printed, we could actually sign and have some ready to go.

But we won't.

Do them tomorrow, I mean.

Because Canada Post says that December 1st is the deadline to put cards in the mail destined for the UK.

And it just happens that Monday is November 30th and that's the day I'll buy the postage I need to round out this project.  So that's the day the cards will go in the mail that are going across the pond.

The others will follow accordingly.

Don't want to be too early for the season you know.

People will think one is anxious (or organized) or something.
