It's begininng to look a lot like Christmas...

Like week after week in our house...things have been chaotic. The other night I was sitting on the couch thinking about all the time that I use to have when I wasn't working. I lounged around and ate bon bons all day...NOT!! What I missed the most is that fact I could start a project and finish it with out getting interrupted for example...the Christmas tree. That has been a work in progress! It has literally taken me a WEEK to put the 9ft thing up. Last year I purged a lot of ornaments and thought I will go buy all new stuff. Well, that was the plan! Let's just say that my plan didn't work out as expected. Just because it has taken a week to put up the tree, doesn't mean it's a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination. Actually it is looking quite plain..to me. I am one of those that has to have everything to match...all the wrapping paper and bags must have coordinating ribbon and sort forth. This year I have come to a conclusion.. 1. Be glad you have a present 2. Be glad your present isn't still in the bag that I brought it home from the store 3. My tree looks retarded. So there, that is Christmas in the Jeffrey-Jackson household. If I get enough energy to get off this couch...I might head to Old Time Pottery and attempt to perk up my tree. But at this moment, my couch feels wonderful and I think there is good Lifetime movie on...Merry Christmas everyone!
