After so many morning coffees in Christmas mugs, and a few weeks of doing all the Christmassy issues, you’d suppose I’d be feeling all of the Christmas feels at the moment. I’m unsure if it’s the hotter temps, Covid getting in the way in which or what, however one thing feels off at the moment and I can’t put my finger on it.

This 12 months we’re internet hosting a Christmas Eve dinner and doing our large Christmas with the children and grandkids a couple of days after Christmas when Tess and Manuel are on the town. With Tess and Manuel nonetheless in Texas, Jake and Jordan anticipating child boy any day (any hour) and my mother and father both not comfy driving after darkish or not feeling comfy being round a big group of individuals proper now, Christmas appears totally different this 12 months and I’m simply realizing it I suppose.

So, we now have plans and I’m ready, however one thing simply feels……….off, totally different.

Mike had plans final evening, so I spent the night doing Chritmassy issues at residence, in an try at getting within the spirit.

I assembled this cutie so the grandkids and I can embellish it Christmas Eve.

I discovered some cute Christmas Coasters this 12 months and I put this one in my wine glass cupboard cuz I feel I’m humorous.

I’ve loads of favourite Christmas motion pictures, however final evening I made a decision to strive some new OLD motion pictures.

Mike purchased a brand new TV for the lounge AND we modified cable corporations. He has but to arrange the film apps and I informed him it was nice. I inform him on a regular basis I don’t even care about TV. So……I watched two motion pictures final evening in the lounge with a fireplace going…..on my laptop computer. That’s proper. I did. So that’s what I get for not having an opinion. Movies in my lap.
