Delaying the Inevitable

Two days and counting. The good news, however, is I now have an adorable little reading corner in the playroom. My hope is that all my nieces and nephews will develop a passion for reading like mine. I think, for me, reading was a way of escaping the reality I knew back when I was a child. While the kids don't have quite as much to escape from, I do hope they learn to lose themselves in a good story. Nothing compares. I really am going to start my letter tonight.......maybe. Perhaps I should scrub the floors with a toothbrush, they need a good cleaning, or maybe deck the attic, or start that novel that I did not, until just now, plan to write.....I am sure there is something important that needs doing.
If I didn't have such a stong hatred of disappointing others, I would just magically forget!
