… Christmas.
We actually bought our tree at the end of November. For the record, this is the earliest tree purchase in our family’s history.
We bought it at The Royal’s Christmas tree sale. (Proceeds go to patient care, yay!) It is truly a lovely tree. It’s up in the living room, but undecorated at the moment. We’re waiting until the youngest gets home. Then, we will pour out the egg nog, spin some Christmas records, and trim the tree together.
I have a feeling people are doubling down on home-based activities this holiday season. I predict more baking, more drinking, more noshing. We were walking the dog the other night and wondering if more people put lights up this year. Have the lights always been so bright and plentiful?
I get it. I’m feeling this way too, after the year we had. We are looking inward; counting our blessings.
