22 Days until Christmas

 I think TheHub and I are both still tired from taking the red eye home because we slept later than normal, and I had very little time to get ready fro my Wednesday class. Luckily it will be the last one until after the new year. The day was at least sunny and a tad warmer than it has been, so that is a big plus.
I headed home, did a little banking business, had lunch and put on really soft clothes to finish all the decorating I need want to do. I know perfectly well Christmas will happen whether things are bright and shiny, but it make me happy to have it done. So essentially, I am decorating just to please myself.

After a quick lunch the work began.


The living room tree and foyer tree are done, but the den tree still needs some work. The front porch trees are out and shining. I still need to rework their bows, but that is easy. I am still undecided about putting a lighted swag over the doorway, but will decide tomorrow.

My beloved sister and I fine tuned our menu for the cousins luncheon, and I am looking forward to seeing everyone.

TheHub grabbed dinner for us since I was still trimming the trees. We ordered one meal to share plus an egg roll each from New China and still have enough leftover for lunch.

And now I am about ready to hit the sack, only to finish a few more things tomorrow. Thankfully I don't have to be anywhere at all.

  2. Oh my, I struggle to put one tree up (although I'm always glad when it's done) so I can't imagine putting all your trees up. Now I understand what the room of horrors was all about! I'm sure it's stunning all the same and everyone appreciates it.

    2. I might possibly go a little overboard with the tree decorations. THe room of horrors was named because it was filled with all seasons of decorations and was a horror show just to enter..

  3. I love that you're decorating for yourself. That is what I do because I love having the house lit up and festive. I should be finished this weekend. The song today is a good one for decorating. It puts a bit of pep in your step. Good for the hub bringing dinner.

    1. TheHub mainly brought dinner because he likes to eat and I was not stopping just to cook!
