It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like....

It's been a cold, rainy, windy day. (Insert joke here about how it's sort of like a summer day in England.) I've been indoors most of the day except when I moved the car out of the garage so we could climb up into the attic to begin planning for Christmas decorating. This means finding out which light strings and reindeer etc. still work and deciding which we are going to replace. We don't do as much for Christmas here at the condo as we used to do at the house. Just not enough space. Our tree, which used to look just right in the house, is too big here and doesn't seem to fit. I think we need another tree, but smaller. My better half (three-quarters?) wants to put the tree outside. I don't think the condo covenants allow this but I'll have to wade through the couple of hundreds pages of documentation to see what's in there regarding Christmas decorations. That said, we have several boxes of decorations that go unused. Pat is going to donate some to our community clubhouse. But first, let's just get past Thanksgiving.
