Morning Ice, Fireplaces, Roses, Audrey H, Kona, Linville, Harley and others. Ice, I hope your friend is doing ok now. That sounds really challenging.
I find the issue with Christmas is that is starts too soon. In the UK, we get the dreadful Christmas songs on the radio, street lights turned on, Christmas adverts on the TV and so on from pretty much the start of November now - maybe those of you in the States get it a bit later because you have Thanksgiving to celebrate first, I don't know? But I get Christmas fatigue each year now by mid December. And my sons both have their birthdays at the end of November, so I have already done all the celebrations and presents thing once by now. I love their birthdays and always try to make them special, but sometimes by the time Christmas comes round, I feel totally exhausted with the whole thing. If I could, I would ban anything to do with Christmas until, say, December 10th. Then it would all seem so much more special to me. Ah well, the things we would do if we ruled the world, eh? They are so many!
Have a good day all you slumberers in the States.
