Before Christmas

Ah, the trauma that is the holiday season. What to get? What not to get? Did I spend enough? Did I spend too much? Will they like it? What if they hate it? Argghhh!

DH and I surprised everyone by putting up the tree last weekend.


Usually it doesn't go up until after the 15th. You could have knocked me over with a feather when hubs asks where the tree is. So off I go to the garage attic and there it is. The ornaments faired pretty well this year especially since I kept the fragile ones in the house. We did have a box of red balls that had managed to vacuum pack themselves into the container. I had to pop them out and was afraid that I would break one. Lots of our old ornaments did not make it out of the tissue paper this year. They were either too big for our five foot tree or they were just too hookey. Sorry moose collection.

And the tree won't come down until mid-January when dd and sil make it to visit. So much for the 01Jan deadline!

Happy Holidays!
