Shhh...it's a secret....

Guess what? I figured out how to bring a bit of Christmas to this dismal abode I call "house". Yep - I've gone and decorated. Oh not much - by Tammi's Standards. Just enough - almost. I couldn't find the boxes with my most precious and favoritest stuff in them, but that's probably a good thing. That way I won't mess them up next time I move. But I did find some stuff...oh yes I did.

There are candles a plenty. :-) And Santa's every where you look - He's even in the bathroom takin' a bath! I have just a hint of garland - too much is bawdy. I have soft pillows and candles, and pinecones and candles. There are angles and candles and my favorite Christmas mugs and candles. I did unpack my Christmas teapot - HEY! You have to have tea during the holidays. Oh, and I have a few candles out.

I've managed to get most everything back into the storage room and after a bit more picking up and cleaning in the morning I'm ready. I'm ready for the traditional Lighting of the Christmas Stuff.

Now - there's no tree. Well, there's a mini tree - but you know what I mean. And I do miss it. But next year. Oh yes, there is always next year.

So tomorrow I'll have a home filled with the scents of the holidays. Pies baking, candles burning (cause you do realize I have a couple candles, right). I'm pleased with how it came together, for the most part.

Yeah, I think I caught that holiday spirit. Watch Out!!!

"Excuse me miss... It's been reported that your abode is a fire hazard. Can we come in and look around?" said the Local Fire Marshall. ;^)

Yea for you!!!!!!! I have all my stuff out, and mom is going to let me "borrow" her tree this year to have in my apartment (since I haven't been able to properly decorate for about 5 years). It's going to be great!!!!!
