For the first time in Pieathon, I'm completely here by myself. My helper elves who assembled boxes, and printed letters, and washed dishes all went to work or home to sleep. And unfortunately, it happens to be when I'm so tired I'm making a million dumb mistakes. The time is running out, and I'm too tired to deal with the mistakes in a mature way.
I've got a million "next years, I'll do this differently" But that doesn't help me now. I need that person at the end of the marathon, who feeds you and gives you water, and yells encouraging words.
Thank goodness I have cook friends who calmed me down. Who stopped me from just turning off the oven, going to sleep, and telling M. to not answer the doorbell tonight.
So I'm pressing on, but this is not fun. And this is not easy. I'm earning every single one of those dollars kids. In the most excruciating way.

oh, ninska! ninaleh! and other endearments: we are totally with you in spirit, even if we're not as entertaining that way around. you are awesome and this is such an awesome project.
would it help you to take a 15 (or even 5) minute walk around the block, or sit out on your porch? even though it might feel like you don't have the time, i bet it would help. and then you can make a master list and post it and cross things off as you do them. at least, that's what i would do.
oh ninabeans. you are a fool but you are everyone's favorite fool. you are doing such a good job and of course you are tired but we all love you very very much and are cheering every pie you make. you are doing such good work.
