Its time to be creative. The clock is ticking.

 The elfing period has arrived. I must get creative. No more job related trivia to distract me. No more feeling like I have the flu. How do I begin to express my feelings, my gratitude, ... my warmest wishes for those in my life? Can a paint brush do it? Can recycling magic happen? Am I too late for the mall? Will the market contain the items I seek that symbolize my regard?

Lists! Lists! I will start the day with making lists. Then see where that gets me.
Perhaps I shouldn't be feeling frantic. Is everyone? I shouldn't be drinking such strong coffee.
