Me and my hair-brained idears....

So I had this wonderful idea the other day.... (shoot me now)...The boys and I are attending two playdates this weekend. One of which is a Valentine's party where there will be 12 other children (besides my 3) and we need to bring Valentine's to swap. Here is where my "idear" came in...I thought how awesome would it be to make mini cards for my kids to hand out rather than to buy some cheesy super hero and Spongebob ones like last yr. Well this sounded all fine and dandy, until it dawned on me that today is Tuesday and the party is Sunday. I have two playdates between now and then in addition to a 1.5 hr long parent meeting at preschool tomorrow (I have to go to this because I am not only the President of their class, but also the Secretary..YAY me! Not!!!) I was supposed to go to an 1.5-2 hr meeting at 4 today for SSC (School Site Safety or something) but backed out of that because frankly I am exhausted and I have too much to do this week. ...any who...I just sat down to figure out how many cards I need, my kids do not need to give each other cards so there are 12 kids....well I have 3 kids so I would need to make 36 cards. I simply do not know if I can handle that in addition to my new orders I have been receiving, but at the same time it is kind of a good way for me to promote my business. I just hope my custom stamp comes before then so I can get all of the backs of my cards stamped. So AM I crazy?!?!?!
I say absolutely...can I handle it... I HOPE SO... 
Then I got to thinking again....dangerous....
What about for school, the preschool and kindergarten boys are both going to school on Monday so they need cards as well. One of them has 18 other kids in his class, the other one has 32 other kids. Holy smokes! At least I have a little more time before that happens. So closet crafting here I come. Please be kind to me today cricut machine and do not F up any of my cut outs or I may just fall over and die a slow and painful death. Okay not really, but I may just freak out a little. So adios, my week is BIZZY!!!!
