Hello All! How's your week going? Are your Christmas preparations well in hand? We're still busy, busy here. One thing that makes all the preparations nicer is listening to Christmas music while we work. I know I've written about our favorite Christmas CDs over the years, and I have a few new ones to share.
Hello Dear Friends. I know it's only Monday, but I hope you're having a good week. I mentioned in an earlier post that we were planning to address our Christmas cards in calligraphy this year. Well, we did it. I was really nervous at first, afraid I'd mess up too many envelopes, and those cards aren't cheap. But it went well, overall, and I had fun doing them.
Happy Advent and Christmas Season to you!! It's a busy one, isn't it? As usual, we have several things going at once here -- just like all of you. :) Thank goodness we went to the mountains for our tree the weekend before Thanksgiving this year; we heard on the news later that several of the N.C. tree farms had to close early this year due to a shortage of trees. This shortage started a few years ago, and will probably continue for several years. Apparently, the trees grow about a foot per year, so...you can do the math for a six to eight foot tree.
Christmas 2018
Good morning all. Is anyone else besides me having a hard time believing Thanksgiving is just a week from Thursday? Wow!! For me, 2019 has seemed like a record year for speeding by.
I've already started putting out Christmas decorations. I never thought I'd see the day when I would start my Christmas decorating a week and a half before Thanksgiving. I felt really guilty about it at first, but now Hal and I are both glad we got an early start this year. I want to be more organized and hopefully we'll all be able to savor the Christmas holiday more fully.
Happy November everyone! I want to apologize to my readers for not posting anything (once again) for almost a month. I have good intentions, but this seems to have been the busiest year we've had in a long time. I want to show you the rest of our den -- pictures of the whole room with the rug and the hallway, but as you all know, it takes time and work to get everything staged and ready for pictures. I will share eventually, though, probably Christmas pictures at this point. 😉
Hello friends!! Are you having a good week? As we used to say in the office, "It's Friday's Eve." 😁 I've popped 'round to share a few quick things with you before the weekend is truly here. My dear hubby will be home Friday through Monday, and we're hoping to get some things done around here.
