I like Christmas decorations. I love the way a fresh cut Christmas tree smells, and I love twinkly lights on trees (especially the ones in downtown athens) and I love all things that sparkle.
It makes me happy and gets me thinking about the weeks to come, and helps me to mentally prepare for everything that Christmas involves.
I spent some time last week helping my mom get our tree decorated, mostly I laid on the floor with the dog and watched her decorate, but I was there for moral support.
Britt and Ross got a tree for our little house this weekend, and it now has three ornaments on it, with dreams of much, much more.
I bought some candy canes at the grocery store. I love candy canes. As a child I used to like to make spears by creating a point on the end on the candy cane. A shiv if you will.
Briscoe likes Christmas too. I’m going to get her a santa hat. Or maybe an elf hat. I think she might like being an elf.
the thin line between optimism and delusion...
