Digging out the decorations
I’ve been up in the attic digging through the sawdust, pulling out the Christmas decorations. Have some little maintenance issues Pat’s taking care of before I can start putting them out, but it’s good to see what I’ve got.
Some I absolutely love, others I wonder what I was thinking when I bought them. Some are gifts that bring back memories, like the little Santa oil lamp that was my grandmother’s, which she gave to me the first Christmas I was married.
This year I’d love to get one of those big ornament trees, like this.
I have so many gorgeous ornaments, and they just get lost on the real tree. I do have a couple smaller ornament trees, but I’d like one at least 4 feet tall or so. But they’re so expensive! Maybe I can go get a couple branches, wire them together, and spray them silver or gold.
I have all these great crafty ideas. I never act on them.

I simplify my decorating more and more every year. I’m looking forward to the year when I bring down the box (singular) of Christmas decorations! Well, maybe two…
