We have been snowed in the past few days, and I’m attempting to get things decorated for the holidays. I had the new tree in a box waiting to be put up for nearly a week, so yesterday I decided it was time. I got out the new tree, Thade was so excited(he loves Christmas), the cats were so excited to have a new giant box to play in. It took me forever to make sure that every branch was in place, and the lights lit. I took a break and stepped away, and I was itchy. My hands had broken out in little pink hives from the tree. Christmas and I just don’t get along.

I still need to get the second tree up and decorated. This one is going in Thade’s room, but I need lights. The streets are still pretty icy outside, so I don’t know if I will be getting outside any today. The decorating will have to wait just a little bit longer.
