"Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat..." Or at least someone is getting fat with the abundance of holiday goodies. That song is one of my Christmas earworms - and I don't mind it. :)
A poinsettia from last year is blooming. Yay! They usually don't make it to the next year, let alone bloom. |
Things are falling into place here as far as Christmas preparations.
--the decorating is done both inside and out (except for a couple of bows I want to add to flower pots),
--the cards are written and mailed (except for a few local ones)
--the baking is done (except for Christmas dinner bread and desserts),
--the gifts are done and wrapped (except for the dog bones I want to get for my sister's dogs),
--the gifts for coworkers and neighbors have been delivered (except for the one for the neighbor who never seems to be home),
--the details of family visits have been ironed out with some family joining us for Christmas Eve (except for the email I just got proposing an extended family outdoor gathering Christmas afternoon),
--the favorite Christmas shows have been watched, (except White Christmas),
--big light displays have been visited (except for one we just heard about this past weekend),
--so to say it another way, Christmas plans are going well (except for the ones that aren't.)
How are things at your house?
