Getting there

I bit the bullet yesterday and started decorating. It feels a bit early, but I know that if I don’t start now, I’ll feel behind when December rolls around. The Christmas Spode came up from the basement, the creche appeared on top of the cupboard. Giant paper snowflakes began falling from the window frames! And shiny bright berries began to burst from the shelves. Weird.

    Yay! This is the only way I can communicate with you these days, since your phone is being stupid. Are you going to come over? Do you have your keys? I am doing MORE decorating today. More and more and more! Our favorite word! More!

    Kristen, I made those snowflakes using directions from Beck’s blog: http://frogandtoadarestillfriends.blogspot.com
    If you scroll to my post from yesterday “Psyching up for the season,” you will find a direct link to her blog and you can see the instructions. THese are really easy to make, and, I fear, rather addictive.
    Love you!
