OK, this is the first of a new "story". I don't know how interesting it will be since I do not expect some young man will come asking to help only to run away with my money. Nevertheless, where the leaves are really not my favorite task, preparing for the holiday season (Halloween-New Years) is.
My pre-pre-Christmas decorating phase begins around Halloween. This year was not an exception... I only paused to do rake the leaves. This ante-penultimate phase consists mainly in getting the decorations down, making sure the lights still work, fix things that need fixing, and deciding what to use, what to through away, and what to keep because I think I might use them sometime.
This phase also includes making decorations. Actually, this part began Jan 1, 2013 with picture taking. Making sure I have a good picture of each grandchild to use in the photo-decoration is a yearlong task. In June, I also got my grandkids to make a tree decoration. I REALLY love these!! They are my most treasure decorations and better than any Christmas present.
