Most of my laundry, Check. Still have one load to fold and then put it all away. Doing Good!!
This undecorated tree looks so sad. On my way to do something about that.
New bows for the top. I am changing colors this year. I am going from burgundy to red.
Mostly decorated and ready to go. Dixie has already put her balls under the tree. Maybe Santa will bring her some new ones.Tuesdays List:
1. Finish laundry.
2. Fluff and decorate tree in sun room.
3. Go vote.
4. Check Nature's nursery for three red camellias.
I may get in the Christmas spirit yet. It is still sad that Marlee may not be at home this Christmas. I am still trying to come to grip with that.

You're much further in your accomplishments than I am, Priss. Sadly I have no lists. But I know in my head all the work I must do. When Pete and I first moved to Georgia, there were several Christmases with just the two of us. Jamie and Jason rotated holidays with their family and many times we were alone. I know you miss Marlee incredibly. All I can say is that will change some day. She will eventually fall in love, marry and have children. She will want you and Freddie to be in their lives because of the wonderful, loving people you are. Yes, Dusty will follow the same path someday. Then your house will be filled with family and children. For the time being, you are welcome to be with our family. You are like the sister I never had, and Jamie loves you very much. If you and Feddie find yourselves alone this Christmas Eve, please come join us at our house. You'll certainly get your fill of anxious excited children!
Being home by yourself sucks...go to Debra's for Christmas day. And where is Miss Marlee anyway? I thought she moved back to Atlanta? I cannot keep up with her!
After moving my mom up to NJ, we leave the day after Thanksgiving, when we come back to Atlanta, we are moving into a lovely apartment on the Chatahochee in Sandy Springs. I will be dead by Christmas, but at least no more RV. We completed our 1 year commitment.
Have a lovely Thanksgiving visiting your family.
Miss you!
Thank you all for the wonderful words of friendship. We will have a lot of people here for Christmas. This is the year that my sister comes from Calif. and my brother comes from Fla. Yes, one day my house will be full of kids again. I do miss all the little things like going to see santa, baking with the kids, going to Calloway Gardens or something like it. I think the thing I miss the most is the building of excitment.
Chere, your tree looks beautiful. Sounds like you will have a house full, but I know what it's like to be missing a child at Christmas. Like Debra says, Marlee and Dusty will both have kids some day and then you'll be busy, busy, busy doing all the things that you miss.
