sierciaand it sure does feel gooooood.
I feared earlier this month that I had bitten off more than I could chew with making ornaments, but the only ones I've got left are ones that I'm not giving people until New Year's most likely, so that all done. All my presents are wrapped. Cards went out last week. For once, Wiley's family's gifts were mailed out early enough to not fret much over them, and so did my Godmother's. The tree is up and (sparsely) decorated. Sparse only because we tried to leave off all the breakable ornaments this year, being that we have three cats and a very enthusiastic toddler. We have real live boughs decorating the outside of the house, with little tiny colored lights wound into them, and lights in the bushes.
I wasn't feeling much Christmas spirit until this weekend when I stopped to buy Widget the rest of her presents. Something about being able to buy her a bunch of non-TV themed gifts made me happy, and I stopped after that for a wreath and the evergreen boughs. We went and got a tree on Sunday and put it up.. Widget helped decorate it, and she was so excited about having a tree inside the house.
Now, Wiley has gone of with Widget, and I get to play Santa Claus, bringing all the presents downstairs. We're going to open them when they get back, in the hopes that she'll calm down for bedtime by 8:00. I'm very excited.
May all of you have a Merry Christmas. Safe travels to those on the road and in the air today and tomorrow.
