GOOD MORNING I hope you all had a wonderful week! Oh my, is it really only 18 days until Christmas. I’m actually ready except for the motivation to decorate. It just seems pointless with no one coming over to enjoy it, but I will try and muster up some motivation to decorate just a little.

OUTSIDE MY WINDOW & THE WEATHER OUTSIDE, WHAT I’M WEARING & HOW I’M FEELING THIS MORNING Yesterday was gorgeous! The rest of the week, not so much! It is supposed to be cloudy, wet and cold for the next 10 days or so with highs in the 40’s and lows in the 30’s. As always I’m wearing Levis, my favorite red UGG’s and a green hoodie.

FAVORITE PHOTO FROM THE CAMERA There’s an old neighborhood in a neighboring downtown that has been overrun with homeless the last several years, but on one end of town they have done wonders to clean it up and it really shows.

Hello Lovie!
I hope you find that mojo too. ❤️ I think you won’t regret it and it will add something. I feel like I’m elfing like crazy over here everyday. But I do have my friend and his daughter coming. It’s such a crazy year! But the quieter, more reflective and peaceful is special in its own way too. I have been much more focused on the reason for the season and doing advent reflections each day and some really powerful feeling prayer time. I hope no matter what you stay healthy and safe dear Friend. Love your inspirations as always and relate!
God bless. xoxo
I hope you find your decorating mojo soon! I still have to write out my Christmas Cards… I hope you can stop by:

Christmas cards I have done and I think I’m starting to get some mojo. Going tomorrow to buy a FRESH wreath – hoping the scent will help!
I wouldn’t be able to take that weather! Love the pretty decorated house and all your recipes look delicious!
LOL that IS where we are opposites, I LOVE the weather! 😀
I was thinking of you last night since I also didn’t feel like decorating. Made myself get started and honestly, I felt better after it was done and was glad I went ahead with it.(Part of it was superstition though…had to hang those Chiefs ornaments on the tree so they’d start scoring and take the lead, LOL!). Started out thinking I’d just put a few ornaments on the tree so did that and then, added a few more. Need to finish up today but somehow just getting started even when I didn’t feel like it sparked me into doing it and it made me happy to pull out all the special ornaments and see them on the tree. Hope you have a great week!
Thanks for the motivation, I’ll see what I can muster up today. Plus that was a good game, I’m sure you’re the reason they pulled it out 😀
