LIKE JUMPNG ROPE
Getting into the Christmas Spirit is like jumping rope this year. I start to decorate then I get pulled another direction. I got some of the decorations out of the attic but that was as far as it went. I read all the blogs and see the decorating being done. Momentarily I am inspired and as momentarily I am uninspired. Trying to jump into Christmas is difficult this year. If I could tie bells and ribbons on my chickens, they would run around and be my decorations.

Take heart...you aren't alone:) Our tradition is that my kids and grandkids come and decorate the tree and outside and I cook dinner. One whole row of the tree light won't work and now one section of the outside lights have quit working....guess they are old like me:)
ReplyDeleteI'm having trouble both with the spirit and the body this year..
ReplyDeleteI love the picture of your Grandson:) Good for him!
I scared myself this morning when I realized Christmas is only about three weeks away. I am not in the Christmas spirit at all this year.

HA! That, I'd like to see. I do think you'd get very tired of the bells.
ReplyDeleteU just discribed exactly who I feel this year. Maybe because we are just finishing up the bathroom renovations, or xmas just snuck up on me..whoknows, I just don't feel like it!..the idea of doing the tree is exhausting to me lol. I do plan to stick a bow on the bathroom door downstairs though...its our xmas present to ourselves...after doing that we cant afford any other presents to eachother and thats OK!
ReplyDeleteI hear ya!! I have had my tree sitting in the living room for a week now, naked as a jay bird. I HATE putting the lights on the tree, I love it when it is done, just hate to do it!
ReplyDeleteBah Humbug!
I jumped the gun this year. My son and I got out the holiday decor boxes and decorated the house and the trees TWO days BEFORE Thanksgiving!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this time of year!!
It goes by WAY too quickly for me.
Holiday chickens would be great!!!
