Laura,

Burn the cross-stitch. Gone! Off the to-do list. You will feel so much better! Ask me how I know… 😂

@Byrd- I might wind up outsourcing it, because I am not sure how much I’d enjoy it plus the fact that it is sitting there is kind of nagging at me. We shall see.

Love her video tutorials, which range from basics and 5 minute make-up to more complicated looks. If there’s any chance – this make-up pro/working mum would certainly make a very interesting interview partner

It languished in my basement for 15 years because, honestly, I didn’t really want to finish it. It is now done and giving it to my dad brought him a lot of joy. It wasn’t bringing anyone any joy in pieces in the storage bin. Least of all me.

@Laura – thanks for the idea! I probably should move it to my desk to remind me to do it…

@Amy – thanks for the tip! Yes, asking guests’ to bring side dishes would be smart. Though honestly, I’ve hosted several Thanksgivings and they are not really that tough. I think it’s just about scheduling stuff with friends on a non holiday that trips me up.

@Jennifer – yes, I suppose it is like anything else – make-up application is a skill. For much of my life I didn’t think about it, but as I near 40, it turns out that being “effortlessly beautiful” requires more effort.
