Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday

GOOD MORNING ladies! I’m getting an early start this morning so I’m just going to jump in here. I hope you had a fantastic week and are having an enjoyable journey to the holidays! We’re just 16 days away from Christmas.

I spent the past couple days decorating and sorting though Christmas decorations. I did the whole FENG SHUI things and held each item before deciding whether to donate, hang it on the tree or pack it away for next year. I am seriously downsizing on “things”. I dropped off 3 bags at Goodwill yesterday before I had a chance to change my mind.

OUTSIDE MY WINDOW & THE WEATHER OUTSIDE & WHAT I’M WEARING We’re starting the week off ALMOST dry, but that will go away quickly and the temperatures will be dropping a bit too.

FAVORITE PHOTO FROM THE CAMERA

Saturday was raining ALL day EXCEPT for about 3 hours mid morning so we took a bunch of stale food over to feed the peacocks. They rewarded me with some awesome photo ops. 😀

I ALWAYS forget how much work decorating for the holidays. I ALWAYS remember why it’s worth the trouble after we’re done. 😀
