Eventually I did get everything done this year that I wanted to. Now the tree is up the decorations are up, and I am having a break from work...I can say I have not gotten anything useful done since Christmas, and I probably won't for a few more days yet...

The tree has at least another week to go till I take it down. Since it is up it is blocking my doing any work, since there is no room in here to do anything with this tree up. It takes up almost a quarter of the living room. But I do love a big tree. If it starts dropping needles at a fast rate it will come down sooner, but as it is now it is still in good shape, and slurping a lot of water.

Ready For Christmas

I believe I have finally done it! gotten most everything done, and will have a couple days to just sit and enjoy my decorations. Only one batch of cookies to go, one present to buy and wrap. All the rest are done, the house is cleaned, the decorations all up, and the cards sent out....
Have the menu written down for Christmas dinner, and I believe I have all the ingredients that I need for everything.
Usually I am still baking and wrapping on Christmas Eve...
It is supposed to snow on Thursday, so I will pop a dish of popcorn, make a pot of tea, grab some DVDs and relax and watch DVDs all day.
