It's time once again to bedeck my wee house in all it's Christmas finery. This is no small feat (even living in a wee house) as I have been making and collecting holiday decorations since childhood. I normally spend the entire month trimming trees (2 large ones), stringing lights, rearranging vignettes and displays and making sure no corner misses some holiday cheer. My husband absolutely refuses to help...( I am "too picky" and he has better things to do for a month)....however, he redeems himself by doing all the outdoor lights and decorations...in our extreme Wisconsin weather, so I will cut him a break. Besides, he helps me take everything down after all the festivities are over.I love the smells, the colors, the sparkle and the transformation of everyday living into a Christmas wonderland. I can't think of another activity that I would rather be doing for a month than creating the wonder and spirit of this precious season of joy.
