So much to do, so little time!

So it seems like whenever I have a few beautiful days off, everybody notices all at once and thinks, wow! Melissa doesn't have anything better to do, let her do it! What a whiner I am, I know. But I think that I might just blow up. And let me just preface this whole post with: I know that more than half of this crap is my own doing.
a. I've been working hard and long (a whole two days) on a Christmas project that I am not even close to being finished with. But I'm not worried. I have a whole month right? Riiiiiiight.
b. My house is a horrible mess because I have totally neglected it for the past two days.
c. Today some friends want me to go see Twilight with them. Which I wanted to do anyway, but if I don't make a serious dent is this hole I'm not going to be able to forgive myself for leaving it to go see a movie.
d. We're having a ward family movie night tomorrow. I don't think that I have anything more to do for this, but Nick isn't going to be home and I'm going to have to go to the church and run the whole thing without my best helper guy. Which I hate because he really is amazing.
e. Nick's not home and that makes me sad. I even woke up at 2:30 last night and couldn't go back to sleep until 4:00. I'm a little tired. I hope that I can stay awake for the movie. Oh, who am I kidding. Of course I can stay awake.
f. The ward Christmas party is coming up and I'm having some conflicts with my committee about it. I think that it would be great if they just didn't have any opinions about anything so they could all just see me for the true genius that I am.
g. I want to go to Fruitland's State football game tonight, but it doesn't look too promising since it's in Boise and Nick and his parents are away.
h. How could I forget the thing that's stressing me out the most?!? I'm getting a Christmas craft together for all of my sisters in law and cousins and what not and I still need to get most of the wood and all of the vinyl lettering for the whole mess. I'm sure that they are going to turn out really cute and everything, but this project is definitely bigger than I thought it was going to be. Gross.
i. I just found out (and when I say, "I just found out", I mean I found out three weeks ago, but it was so horrible a thought that I blocked it out completely and only just remembered the whole thing two days ago) that I have to organize the Giving Tree for our ward at church. I really don't have a problem organizing it, it's just the knowing where all that stuff is going that is going to bother me. I've been so happy to just pick a wish off the tree, buy it, wrap it, and bring it to church. Never knowing where the thing is going. But now I have to know where everthing is going, and I don't know why, but that bothers me.

Oh, man. I'm tired. I need a nap. Maybe 20 minutes won't kill me. Then I can tidy the house and go to my movie! And make my calls about the vinyl. Ugh. I do not want to do that.
