Holiday Decorating is Done!

I am so happy to have the tree decorated, the nutcrackers out and a few other decorations and lights are up and I consider the house the decorating finished.  Son3 opened all the ornaments, while I decorated.  (Actually VOLUNTEERED! :)  )   Only half the boxes are back in the attic, though.  That is the last thing BEFORE actually "cleaning" the house.  You know--dusting, vacuuming, mopping, take place. HA!

Only 4 more days until school is finished for break so DH will be home for 2 weeks--sort of--works security for Ford Field, so will be gone a couple of days.

Received my nephew's Xmas present today  (ordered online)--he wanted the Lego "Mr. Freeze"-- over 20 bucks and it all fit in a small bead bag!  And THIS was a DEAL!!  Now I have to figure out how to put it together to make sure I have all the parts.  I am spatially challenged, so I think this is a DH project.

Fasting for 12 hours for annual physical, tomorrow. Actually, I have 3 minutes before I have to "officially" start.  :)

Still can't get myself "up" for Christmas.  Another friend made me realize that since Son1 died, I have not had the same passion for holidays.  Each year, I go through the motions and each year, the motions are less and less.  I thought it was due to aging. :)

Otherwise, life by the beach is good--even though the water was ALMOST frozen.   Maybe next week.
