Christmas time is my FAVORITE time of the year. It always has been, and it will always be.
But this year has been distinctly weird.
It all started at the beginning of December. After a rather trying 2017 we decided to go to Disne World for my birthday. Disney full of Christmas decorations and holiday parties. (There’s a post coming about it. I just need to write it up!)
When we got back I somehow got it stuck in my head that Christmas had already passed.
Fast forward to right now. Work has been closed since Wednesday afternoon. I’ve been on vacation for 5 days, and it’s just now Christmas Eve. And we’re not traveling for the holiday this year. This is our year to stay home.
We have a nice small tree with a few things under it. After Disney World we decided that Disney was our presents to each other. It’s not that presents make the holiday, but our tree does look a bit bare. At least the pets have some things in their stockings! I can’t wait for Misty to see her toys!
Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. Then comes Christmas Day, and a day of cleaning and getting ready for the next day. My mom flies in on the 26th. For me, that has been the beginning of the Christmas season. Ironically, it starts the day after.
There were tears yesterday. And after a bit of teenage hooligan mischief, I don’t want to leave the house.
Hopefully a trip to Christmas Town after the holiday will kick these blues.
Merry Christmas Everyone!
