I have a little silver Christmas tree.
I finished Christmas preparations today, December 24, at 3:10 pm. I started them November 1.2010. I feel like I have not slept for about six weeks. I am physically very slow these days; it takes me a long time to do what is very little to most people. When I had done the last thing, wrapped a gift for my niece Rose, I showered and my sister picked me up at 4:15pm.
I spent Christmas Eve with my sister’s family. We ate a fish dinner and then went to church.
When I got back I decided at first that it was too late to decorate a Christmas Tree. I would normally have done so at the beginning of Advent…weeks ago.
After an hour of no, I changed my mind. Even though I did not want to move the boxes I would have to to dig out the Christmas stuff, it just did not feel Christmasy in here. It is technically already Christmas now that my tree is finally up but I am still glad I did it.
Who knows? Maybe that will become a tradition, decorating my tree on Christmas Eve???
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
