maybe, it depends on how thursday goes. This weekend, we did thorough bathroom cleaning, litter box change out (our neighbor who watches the cats prefers a different kind of litter, so we try to accomodate him), laundry, and errands. I put my feet up for less than an hour on Sunday, that was it. Thursday is cleaning our the fridge day but if that goes quickly, I might have time to put one of the little Christmas trees up. I am hoping to find some Texas themed or Western themed mini ornaments. Due to finances, we don't have alot of extras planned for this trip, so maybe we can finally make it to the Christmas store. :scene:

Thanksgiving is so close now that I am trying to energize myself to take down all my autumn decorations before next Thursday. It does help decorate for Christmas two days afterwards -- when my brother leaves -- which shortens the time until I finish. It takes 1 week to decorate the house inside & out and then another 3-5 days to finish the tree. I am working on being a perfectionist.........but I still decide to move things around over and over again until I feel they are 'just right'. :elfgrin:

Not yet. But cold medicine is keeping the symptoms manageable.

I was thinking about this. WE don't do autumn and don't have alot of space, but if I did, I would start with the other rooms, and keep the dining room "fall" for Thanksgiving.........then you can start Christmas decorating in the other parts of the house.
