We’re officially into holiday season, and I’m already wondering how people do it. I don’t do nearly the work some people do for the holidays–for instance, since we go away, I don’t decorate the apartment–and yet, I feel totally sapped right now. Maybe it’s because I have a decent amount of difficult work and my poor, old computer is getting slower by the hour, but I feel like I just can’t get around to doing the holidays. Right now, I’m just taking life one task at a time and hoping I can focus on it enough to at least get it done and enjoy it while I do it.
Luckily, we’re headed to Florida soon. Being in the warmth may feel more like Christmas to me!

Every year we thought the kid wanted a fresh christmas tree - so we would go to a farm, smell them, find the right tree, chop it down, bring it home - the whole works - this year I asked the kid what she wants - she said a Blue Christmas Tree - I went to Walmart and got a light blue (like Elvis Blue) one 3.5 feet high - with lights for 20 bucks - got her some ornaments from Ikea for 2 bucks - for 22 bucks I have the most stressless Christmas tree there is.
