After so many morning coffees in Christmas mugs, and a few weeks of doing all the Christmassy issues, you’d assume I’d be feeling all of the Christmas feels right now. I’m unsure if it’s the hotter temps, Covid getting in the way in which or what, however one thing feels off right now 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 just a few 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 snug driving after darkish or not feeling snug being round a big group of individuals proper now, Christmas seems totally different this 12 months and I’m simply realizing it I suppose.
So, now we 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 house, 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 numerous favourite Christmas films, however final evening I made a decision to strive some new OLD films.
Mike purchased a brand new TV for the lounge AND we modified cable corporations. He has but to arrange the film apps and I instructed him it was effective. I inform him on a regular basis I don’t even care about TV. So……I watched two films final evening in the lounge with a fireplace going…..on my laptop computer. That’s proper. I did. In order that’s what I get for not having an opinion. Motion pictures in my lap.
