The first snow and the first Christmas cards have arrived and it was time. I spent yesterday stripping off the autumn pillow covers and taking down seasonal decor. For a break, I sat at the computer and did some gift shopping. Still to go, hanging up the red and green quilts, putting up lights and Christmas decorations, wrapping some gifts, and doing Christmas cards.
The tree won't happen till maybe next weekend or even later.
It's going to be a much quieter holiday as we are staying very much in the bubble of just us and Justin, Claui, and Josie. But we need the lights and the traditional accoutrements, I think, now more than ever.
