We don't have a tree or inside decorations, but this year I did put colored lights on our railing and lights taped on to the inside of two windows,one in the shape of a white Christmas tree, the other bright colored lights in the shape of a wreath. I never did that before, but thought I would do something cheerful because some people are feeling down. They were simple, but a friendly gesture.
I was surprised at how few people had outdoor decorations this year. I have really enjoyed my lighted snowflakes blinking on the front porch from my kitchen window when I get that second cup of coffee at 4:30 am. But inside? Rather low key. Mostly calm whites. It was an unusual Christmas for a lot of people this year.
I saw on Facebook that some people had six trees. I can barely deal with one small one.

ReplyDeleteI did that this afternoon and it does feel larger but bare at the same time.
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of truth to this one.
