I think the tree looks great, mostly because of my husband's efforts. He does the heavy lifting, the tightening the base and this year most of the decorations. I'm vertically challenged and with a bum foot this year, he really was the tree guy. I love the smell of the tree - a Noble Fir - and the garlands (cedar) and the greens on the mantels and elsewhere. Very woodsy.
Today I have my Buddhist study group, and I always get a lot out of the discussion. Then I believe it is time to start wrapping, and organize stocking stuffers. The two bedrooms where stuff is strewn from stem to stern need cleaning up for our older daughter, her husband and our granddaughter arrive.
My younger son and I had a successful outing at Costco yesterday, and even ordered two cakes at a bakery: Bueche de Noel and a crazy green Christmas tree cake shaped like a tree. Fun!
