It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

At least in this house it is. I talked to a woman today who "just really isn't into Christmas." I've never met anyone like her before, lol. Seriously. She said she hadn't had a tree since her kid was 10 and he's all grown up now. She was a complete mystery to me.

I love the trees, decorations, songs and presents. I'm feeling a little low on Christmas spirit so far but still, my tree was up as soon as humanly possible after Thanksgiving. It's a pretty tree, I just wish I had to know how to take a great pic of it. Not an easy task as I'm sure most of you know.

I haven't crafted anything in the way of presents. It's a shame really as I know my youngest child and mother would both like afghans. Ash requested a scarf, which isn't totally out of the realm of possibilities yet and may just get done. But there is no one else I think would want anything or care to receive anything homemade. Ok, so I don't know that they care to receive anything else we gift them with but at least I'm not completely invested in their reactions this way.:)

We're very busy here but the snow and harsh cold haven't hit us yet so all is well in the North Country as far as I'm concerned. We filled the tank in my van for under $40 today. I almost fell over. I've got a little shopping done and am ahead of my normal schedule. Life is good.

I hope all is well with you all!
