Doing yesterday’s and today’s in one. Pretty much the same as last year.

 

 

 

 

OK. I’m already loosing steam. I cheated today. This one is in the shop. Give me a break! Four days in a row is harrrrdddd! LOL Here’s what happened to today. I overslept this morning. Actually, I woke up at 4:00, lay there for an hour thinking of all the things I had to do today, this week, this month, this year, this lifetime…. Finally got up and cleaned out the refrigerator and took the garbage out. Checked email and stuff and went back to bed. Still couldn’t go back to sleep, so I started reading. That put me out pretty quickly and I didn’t wake up until – gasp – 8:30! Had to wash my hair, feed the cat, get dressed, so I didn’t have time to get any decorations out.

We did get a tree last night for the shop. I’m waiting on Ricky the Light Man to get down here and put it up and string the lights. Thought he’d be here an hour ago. I’m getting that feeling he’s gonna be a no show. If we wait much longer, there’ll be no use in even putting it up here. I do have lights in the windows at least.

The tree at home is planned to go up tonight, but it takes me several days to get it decorated. It’ll be awhile before there are any pictures of it.

Part of the fun of getting Christmas decorations out is finding things I bought during the year that I’d forgot about. These are old Gurley candle candles. A little messed up, but I like them.

I know I sound like a broken record, but I have no time!!! Well, I have as much time as everyone else in the world. Maybe I don’t use it wisely. I know I work slow. Today was spent getting packages ready for the mail carrier and taking pictures of things to put on the site and eBay. Oh, how awful to have to sell to pay the rent! It monopolizes my time. 

 

 

I’m dashing this post quickly, getting ready to make a Hobby Lobby run to get a Christmas tree for the shop. A little later than most businesses, huh? Of course our town is too small for a Hobby Lobby, so we’ll make the 45 mile trek tonight. At least we’ll get a good meal while we’re out.

 

 

Ain’t much, but it’s sumthin.

These are actually pins. I’ve got them stuck to the wall with Glue Dots. Got up this morning and had had one fatality. The one on the right had crashed to the ground, but he got right back up there. Not sure if this is going to work long term or not. Those sheep pictures are over my sheep collection. The oval picture is from Sue at Vintage Rescue Squad and I’m loving it! A full picture of the sheep collection and prints is for another day. Another day after Christmas.

So far, I know Connie at Magnolia Street Style is posting Christmas pics and Iris at 365 Days In Guntersville (Alabama) is showing Christmas scenes. How about you? Come on, now! Snap to!
