The tree is finished, the Nativity is up, the wreath is on the door. We had issues with the Nativity; Baby Jesus did NOT want to stay in his manger. He said he's tired of hanging out in a wooden box for 2007 years, he'd like to at least get up and go for a walk!

I don't think I'm going to do outdoor lights and garlands this year. As LimerickGal has said, it's tooooo effing cold! It's so cold that I "forgot" to take out the recycling this morning, and have now missed it for the second week in a row.

Maybe I'll get snow for Christmas after all!
