Targets I miss by a mile!

Why oh why do I do it! I set myself a target that I just know I am never going to keep and then get pissed off with myself for not having been better organised! I vowed this year to have my Christmas shopping done by 1st December and of course I haven't! If I had even had my cards sorted I might have been reasonably happy but I don't even have those done! I just kinda want to be organised and relaxed coming up to Christmas this year and enjoy it for a change. Perhaps some year we will just stick our fingers up to the whole lot of it and refuse to get sucked in!
