Oh no just 4 weeks till Christmas

This past week I had plans to do little for and about Christmas concentrating on family time. After a red eye flight, we got home Monday morning at about 9:45. Now Christmas starts with a flourish (well after I finish the laundry). So much to do today, I need to quit typing this and get running!


I did a little bit of Christmas decorating on Monday and then we left for Portland.

Once there TheHub and I ran to Dollar Tree to grab a few gift bags I forgot to pack, to hold the gifts I did remember to pack. I did buy some cool tissue paper to stuff in the tops of the gift bags.

And other than riding around looking at some lights and delivering the wrapped gifts I could fit in my suitcase, that was it for anything Christmas. Instead we enjoyed Thanksgiving week with the Portland crew. While there, I did keep my listening ears open and managed to pick up a few hints for possible gift giving

And since it is officially December 1, I am aiming to post a Christmas tune every day

Thanksgiving is in the books

24 Days till Christmas

Ho, Ho, How fast can the next three weeks fly?

  1. I love today's song choice. I have my tree up, lights are on it, and I've even managed to get some ornaments out. All is not lost for me with the decorating as I was afraid it would be.

    Love,
    Janie

    1. It's cold and I am tired! I hope Thanksgiving is early next year. I guess I could check the calendar instead of just hoping, huh?
