The temps were 30 (F) when I got up and there was snow in the forecast... well, not snow precisely, flurries is what they were predicting. It's a good thing I don't crave the white stuff; sitting by the window for the past 45 minutes nary a flake has drifted by. What a shame this winter thing is going to drag itself out until at least March. Then, warm temps will be upon and they'll race by until once again we're left with the winter dark.
I thought of putting up my Christmas (all season) tree. That's about as far as it went. There was a time when I did decorate, but not anymore, and not for any holiday, it's not just Christmas. Decorations need to be appreciated by many eyes, and, as I told Jon (the PT), I just don't invite people over anymore. I prefer going out. The invitations I get are nice and I usually attend, but over the past few years I've decided I really don't want people coming into my house. Being a host requires extra time and effort that I'm no willing to give up. Maybe, as I grow older, I'm simply getting selfish with my time. I figure I may have what? Possibly 30 years left, and I want to spend it with me.
Still no flurries.
All of the cabinet doors have been hung in my kitchen renovation. There's a bit more painting that needs to be done, a bit of caulking, some backsplash added to the sink, and then I get to the floor, meaning I'll be spending a lot of time on my knees.
Great job on the kitchen. Counter and backsplash look so good together. Tuber is a Tool.
ReplyDeleteThanks. This might be the last time I take on a project this involved. And Tuber is worse than a tool.
DeleteAfter what Tuberville has done and put the current military through, and with veterans, Im am shocked he even keeps getting reelected. After the one bill they had and him holding it up, many of his own party were getting done with him too. But I sometimes feel shame for our government for how they treat veterans, after the service they provides us.
ReplyDeleteI still decorate but use mostly natural greens and little bottle brush tress here and there. And I few family heirlooms are placed out.
I'm so over the holidays already and waiting for the bright, sunny days of winter. I have southern exposure, so with the leaves off the trees I get all of that gloriously bright sunshine!
DeleteToo bad Tuberville cannot be expelled, the lying POS.
ReplyDeleteHe's earned a name for himself with this little stunt, however, it's not the name he was hoping for.
DeleteOhhh I don't know if I will do anything holiday-ish yet. I'm thinking about it.
ReplyDeleteAnd the kitchen is looking good. You sure you wanna do that on your knees??
As for Hannity and the Orange One, they pre-recorded everything so Cheeto does not sound as senile and deranged as usual. Not gonna work.
Tuberville is a dick.
XOXO
Yes, I'm going to have to get down on my knees. Prepare to hear my anguish when I stand up.
DeleteThe kitchen looks lovely - I love the backsplash. And yeah, why not do away with the decorations if you don't like them!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I did the backsplash myself! I have a tree, if I feel like decorating, I'll set it up.
