I haven’t put up decorations since my mom died Dec 30, 2018 but that may change this year. I’m going to be opening my home for foster kids and I would decorate for them. I’m excited and nervous, I’ve always wanted kids but it wasn’t in the cards. I’m single, 26 years sober, and I have a 4 bedroom house my mom left me that feels so empty since she died.

The grandbaby has been keeping us busy…and i picked up some overtime (or as i like to call it “extra spoiling the grandson money”

On a side note. It is not the correct tree. A normal person would send it back. Not us! We ordered the correct tree and will figure out how to make room.

I thought of starting a Christmas thread for the past 2-3 weeks. But I didn’t have the guts, thinking people will find it crazy early to be talking about Christmas.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I love you right now! :kissing_heart::heart::christmas_tree:

The advent calendar I bought for myself on the day it was released end of August. I now have an annual reminder on my phone, when to order, because I had a few years where I left it too late and they were sold out by October/November time.
