Christmas decorations successfully extracted from the garage. Check.
Tree up and lighted. Check.
(side bar: I HATE the pre-lit trees. They simply don't stay totally lit from year to year and I was determined to find a high quality fake tree WITHOUT LIGHTS. Think about it. They're all pre-lit now.)
Seasonal candle lit and aromatic. Check.
Kids at school. Check.
Call me scrooge, but that last one is very important. The kids and I spent the balance of the weekend getting the tree, the lights and kid-constructed paper chain up and they put on THEIR precious school-made ornaments and I love it.
However, I LOVE to do the rest of it. Placing my favorite ornaments prominently here and there while singing loudly (and very badly) all alone.
All that's possibly missing is an adult libation...let's see, now where did I put that Frangelico for my peppermint coffee??
