Decorating: The Ghost of Christmas Past
Although Christmas is long since over and Valentines Day is literally around the corner, I am not a big Valentinian so I thought I would post about my favourite holiday of LOVE…Christmas!! My favourite part of the winter! If I didn’t love summer sooooooooooooo much I’d be wishing for Christmas again about now. In my dream climate the four seasons would be: a beautiful, clear, sunny Spring; a long, hot Summer; a sunny, crisp, clear Autumn; and a clear, sunny, snowy, and cold Christmas. I wonder where that climate exists…Unfortunately on Vancouver Island, where we live, there seem to be two seasons: Summer and RAIN-FOG. Christmas is the one bright light amongst a long bout of rain and fog and I LOVE it… so here I am reliving my Christmas décor. Enjoy:)
Awww… now I have my fix. I feel fortified by the LOVE and JOY and know it will return again next year! That will hold me through until Spring…and I did see some little bulbs poking their head up the other day, so perhaps it is not so long to wait!
And remember, my housie friends, HOME wasn’t built in a day. Enjoy the journey!
