Behind?

My husband is the elf for my brother this year (we each select one sibling to give to). However, he's insanely busy, as is my brother; my brother doesn't have time to think about what he wants and my husband can't go shopping. So, I'm making a knit object for my brother. I'm the helper elf (basically I manage all gifting in our relationship, except for his gifts to me). But I realized today just how much I need to get going for it to be ready by Christmas. And we're heading out in ten days; I'd like to have it finished by then.

I will not get sucked into seasonal stress, I will not get sucked into seasonal stress, I will not get sucked into seasonal stress, etc.
