It could be a robin...
Dec. 6th, 2008 08:54 pmWhee! Despite my feeling really crap today we have our 'decs' up - consisting of our tree and a bit of wire garland on the shelves to hang Christmas cards on... although I've just remembered that we have a holly bush in the garden so I might go out tomorrow and clip a few sprigs.
Our tree is starting to smell funny - for most of the year it lives in a box in the slightly damp cupboard under the stairs and has started to pick up a bit of a musty smell. Plus the top bit doesn't quite fit on properly these days. Might just get a new one next year. It's very pretty with all its baubles on though. Vi enjoyed hitting them so that they swung around, which is an improvement on last year when she just tried to eat them.
Plus I braved town this afternoon (Glahhhh! Too many people!) and got sis another Christmas pressie (since what she asked for cost all of a fiver) so now apart from getting stocking fillers, something else for Hubs and baking the cakes for the Mafia I think I'm done. And I've nearly finished writing the Chrimble cards. I might actually be ahead of schedule this year!
