1. We took the annual trip to the cemetery to put a Christmas wreath at my parent's grave and stopped for breakfast on the way home at Cracker Barrel
2. Himself bought me new buckets for storm prep that match the bathroom.
3. Spent the weekend preparing for the storm and putting the Christmas curtains up.
4. Himself''s college cancelled day classes for the second snowstorm.
5. Being housebound because of the weather was the perfect excuse to decorate the house for Christmas.
How was your week?
Sounds good, and great that you got time to decorate. Thanks to the rain toda I am managing to do some housew**k....

😺Well, it has to be done. Maybe it will clear and you can get out for your walk
DeleteA productive week is a good week:) Nice that it ended with an opportunity to enjoy those beautiful Christmas decorations!
ReplyDeleteAll was good here, too. Also prepping for winter.
Is it July, yet?
DeleteWow, your house looks beautifully festive 😁. I'm loving your winter curtains with the red cardinals - perfect! I hope the snow melts quickly for you. Sarah warm and wishing you a happy Friday and Weekend! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteIt's supposed to warm up a little this weekend with rain so I hope a lot of the snow melts. I've had enough for the season.
DeleteAlways a silver lining! :D The house looks great!
ReplyDeleteThanks. 😊
DeleteI LOVE your tabletop tree. I may have to see about investing in one of those. Glad you were able to get your decorations ready, even if it did mean you had to stay home due to the storm. The princess doesn't need to be out in this mess your got. I hope it wasn't as bad as they predicted. Basically, you had a good week!
ReplyDeleteIf you do look for a small tree (I think mine is 4 ft.) start early before the Christmas season. Either the retailers don't order a lot of small trees or all us old folks are down-sizing and scooping them up.
DeleteI love your tree and its placement in front of the window. So pretty! Buckets for storm prep?
ReplyDeleteI live in a rural area and have a well. If the electricity goes out, there is no water to flush a toilet as the well pump needs electricity to run. So I fill up eight 2 gallon buckets of water to be able to flush the toilet when absolutely necessary. TMI? 😺
DeleteOho! Thanks for explaining :)
Deletebeautiful pic of the room - love it. sounds like a good week and nice thing to take a wreath for your parents.
ReplyDeleteWe visit the cemetery twice a year. In July around their anniversary (4th) or Ma's birthday in September. Then just after Thanksgiving to bring a wreath before the snows fly
DeleteBlessings.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteYour Christmas decorations look nice. Good idea to take advantage of being housebound due to the storm, to get that done. (I might put my stuff up this weekend.) Putting a Christmas wreath at your parents' grave sounds like a great tradition to have.
ReplyDeleteIt's supposed to be cold today might be good to stay inside and decorate. Get Teddy to help you.
DeleteI did the same thing during the storm. But I still have some decorating to do, hopefully tomorrow. I wonder how much of the snow we'll lose with all the rain and warmth coming in? Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteI hope a good amount gets melted away
DeleteDoesn't sound a bad week :)
ReplyDeletePleased you were able to do your decorations … that's what we have done this weekend.
All the best Jan
It was a good week and decorating during the storm was a good distraction
DeleteYour house made me smile! Thank you CJ!
