Happy December!

Tradition says that my Christmas tree would have gone up yesterday, but it didn't. With the sickies hanging out here the cleaning that comes before the decorating has gone way slow. Sadness. :( I've spent the day trying to catch up, hoping to get the tree put up tonight, but we shall see. It may end up being tomorrow. :p

I did get my Christmas banner up on my blog though. Lazy me, I'm just recycling the one I made the first year I was doing this. That poor angel has been retired and everything. Hmmm... Maybe that's why I still like it. :) She was part of my very first Christmas tree. Back from single mom/college days. I still have quite a few of the ornaments I bought back then, just not the tree or the angel.

Anyhow, I feel like such a slacker once again. It seems like most of my fellow bloggers decorated this weekend like I would have, and here I am hoping to get it done soon. Of course, there will be pictures & such when we get to. :) For now you all get to hear me whine or whatever. Again. This is not a good habit I've been developing, huh. :p

Kirsten helped me throw this together to add to this post since I was worried I'd have no Christmas-y pics just yet. Not that this is all that Christmas-y, but yeah. It's what I had to work with. :p
(She even took the pic - it was on Thanksgiving & I wasn't feeling great, but it's something, right? Yeah, I'm so glad we'll have plenty other stuff to take pics of over the next few weeks. :p)
