I am doing pretty good!
I have been doing a little Christmas shopping, I still have more to do. I haven't decided if I am going to put up the tree or not. I am not sure how the dog will handle it. She isn't left on her own very often, but just in case she is, I wouldn't want her to get to any of the ornaments. I will put up our Christmas stockings and maybe a few other decorations.
Weather is cold, but so far there is no snow on the ground. It has snowed a couple of times, but neither time was there very much and it all melted within a day or two. I am not ready for winter!

Hi. We are doing well. I can't think about Christmas until my daughters wedding this weekend! It has been a circus of a week so far-so many last minute things. We are all so excited! Next week I'll pull out Christmas decorations. We'll probably wait until the younger girls come home from college around the 15th to get our tree. Present -wise its going to be very simple. We are in a cold snap here in Southeastern PA. Day temps are in the low 30's. We had a brief snow yesterday morning-no accumulation. Hope everyone else is doing well!

Hello Everyone.
Christmas Decorations are going up - Saturday is my deadline
I have been churning away at simple pillowcases with fabric I was given. 15 so far, now I need to figure out who I will give them to.
I had Thanksgiving on 2 different days. No wonder I gained 4 lbs in the last month. Ugh! My DH has been fighting an infection so I haven’t been walking.
i had mailed a box of 250 cards to Operation Gratitude. I haven’t gone back to card making and the supplies are still everywhere. I will get back to it soon.

We are doing well. We had a nice family Thanksgiving at SIL’s house, she has a nice big dining room.
I don’t do much Christmas shopping but I haven’t even started what little I do. I did not put up a tree last year but I missed it so this year I am doing a tabletop one. I hope to get it out and decorated this weekend, as well as whatever other Christmas decorating I’ll do this year.
The weather has been cold (in the 20s) but today it’s supposed to be in the 40s. We had a little snow but it only amounted to less than an inch. Good thing, because our snowblower is in the shop, it is leaking oil. DH is anxious to get it back, he always wants to be prepared!
So great to hear how you all are doing. Happy holidays!

Hello friends! We are good here. It's been very warm the last couple of days, but tomorrow it is supposed to cool down.
I will start decorating, probably this weekend sometime. Just about the time my back feels better so I can aggravate it again. We have friends coming into town at Christmas so that will keep us busy. Unfortunately, DH isn't much on Christmas so this will give me something to do. I will be feeding the five of them a couple times.
I bought a new rug for my scrapbook room which required a thorough cleaning of the room. I think I'm still tired from cleaning that and other rooms this past weekend.
I made a few Christmas cards yesterday and hope to get back to that tomorrow.
Hope everyone is well!

We cut our own tree. We got it the first weekend of Dec but took five days to get it into the house and decorated. I haven't been in the holiday spirit. Got about half of the presents. Baking Christmas cookies on Sunday with my girls and granddaughter. Maybe that will help. The weather doesn't help as the temps are in the 40s. I'm not a big snow lover but I do like it for Christmas!
