T-Day - Updated

* Tree Up - check - record time. 15 minutes
* Tree "fluffed" - check
* Lights up - dear heaven above, I don't know if I remember how
* Ornaments out and ready to apply - check
* Bread baking in oven - check - beer bread and potato soup for lunch
* Candles lit - check (who cares that it's sunny as hell! You have to have candles lit when decorating a tree! I think it's a law)
* Cookies out and ready - check
* Traditional Christmas music playing - check

As I'm starting to get the lights ready and waiting for my helper I can't stopped smiling. This truly is my favorite time of the year, and the first time in over 4 years that I've been able to really EXPRESS myself. It's time. Hell, it's past time.

It's going to be a festive day here in Tammi's World. It's T-day. TREE DAY!! WooHoo!!! My helper should be here any time, and I'm already anticipating the fun we're going to have.

Pictures of the tree when we're done. No matter HOW it turns out!!!
