We've been watching gymnastics and swimming. Some cycling and basketball.
Reindeer Olympics? :think: Sounds Christmasy. :D

My tree has arrived. What did you order for Christmas?



Yay! Hope you love your new tree. :treewiggle: Avon had 3 wick candles on sale so I got one for me and one for a gift. I love their Christmas scented candles. They should be in the books soon. :treeclap:

There were so many commercials - so often - that we stopped watching prime time. We watch late night - sort sport via Directv - and catch up with those we enjoy. Swimming, gynaastics, 4K were fabulous performances and gold metals for the USA. We cheered with our best Cristmas roars. :D

for me, the fun comes in the decorating not putting up the tree itself. As a short, round person, putting up the 6 ft tree by myself was a Christmas challenge.

I can relate to the difficulty of reaching the top fourth of a large Christmas tree. Ours in the family room is always a bit more sparse than the rest of the tree. I use a step ladder, but our ladder is too wobbly for me. Still I love the Christmas lights so much and use them everywhere I can throughout the house. :scene:

Next week I'm gonna binge watch 'The Ranch' on Netflix. I love Sam Elliott. I've watched a few episodes and I can't watch it around the kiddo because of bad language and content. I know if it's inappropriate I shouldn't watch it either but did I mention I love Sam Elliott. He's great in everything including one of my favorite Christmas movies 'Prancer'. :reindeer2:
