My friend Michelle keeps saying, "are you stressing out over something that's supposed to be fun again?" <BR/><BR/>Heather #2 - I LOVE the idea of a birdseed gingerbread house! I'll have to keep that idea in mind. Paige would love it. <BR/><BR/>Mom Unplugged - perfectionism can be paralyzing. Sometimes I don't get anything done because I can't do it "right" so why do it. Or I can't do it all, so why do it. Lately I've had to tell myself, "something is better than nothing" and keep repeating it so that I actually get something done.<BR/><BR/>Thank you all for the nice comments on our bird sandwiches. Paige has already asked to make them again. This morning she saw a bird while I was putting her in the car and she said, "I love birds." She really does, and has since she was a baby. <BR/><BR/>Now I challenge all of you to try a green project this week! :)Michiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03438417221237116318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3375982911441075418.post-24780347251368764352008-05-01T01:15:00.000-04:002008-05-01T01:15:00.000-04:00I can *totally* relate to the perfectionist thing!...I can *totally* relate to the perfectionist thing!
