Needless to say, being laid up before Christmas has meant that I’m a little behind the times. This is complicated by the fact that Clara has been getting over a bug and isn’t driving either. Someone posted a picture on Facebook this morning that said what I want for Christmas is more time before Christmas. I could do with that, myself.
However, we are soldiering on. Katrina is coming over to help with the Christmas decorations. Getting the tree up would be good. I did hang the outside lights weeks before surgery, since there was a mild spell and I figured I’d take advantage of it. I have bought most of the Christmas cards and only done some of the shopping, so that needs to be dealt with sooner rather than later. I’m hoping to get the cards out later today. I did cheat and e-mail last year’s Christmas picture to some people. It’s crass, but effective.
Note: if your card or package shows up late, there are 12 days of Christmas…

Behind your time? I say relax, enjoy and don’t let the season cause catatonia. It’s not good for you or anyone else. And Shoppers Drug mart is open late on Christmas Eve!
Thanks, Scott. I’m not going to overdo things. I’d rather be late than miss out on the season.
