Just a Few

Life is hectic.  Life is stressful.  Life is wonderful.  Life is full of "just a few's".
My mind never stops.  The wheels are always spinning and re-creating.  I've mentioned this before.  I always seem to have "just a few" things going on.  Right now I think I have bypassed my 10 fingers with my "just a few's".
1. Housework that never seems to end.
2. Children that never seem to stop.
3. Photos that I never seem caught up on.
4. Art project after art project that keep getting more involved because I continue to create!
5. Wallhanging's out of various items.
6. Jewelry pieces that I continue to add to.
7. Goodwill purchases that equal a total of $5 but equal double that in time.
8. A stool that needs sanded and cleaned and painted.
9. An old piece of tongue and groove board from my dad's barn that is being converted into either a shelf or a wall-hanger with spoons and forks as hangers.
9. A pile of vintage wooden hangers that I am using as a photo display for my kids.
10. An old printers tray that will be converted as a wall-hanger and divided by three to display my kids individual "treasures" they collect over the years.
11. Quilt pieces that I have endless ideas for!
12. Hankies! Hankies! Hankies!  Will be converting them into curtains in my laundry room.
13. A garden that now will need tending to.
14.......................need I say more!?!

ALL of my pieces are one-of-a-kind pieces.  
NO two are alike.

I now only have "just a few" hours until my children will rise.
Goodnight my friends. 
I would love to hear about your "just a few's".
