Don’t worry, I will not continue to post everyday. I just wanted to post a bunch of my Christmas decorations pictures and then I keep having little thoughts. Yesterday I had already posted my Friday Photo and I had a thought: It was dark. It had been dark a lot of December and so far a couple of days in January and I LOVE IT! As soon as I realized it was dark I ran around turning on all the Christmas lights. Now, I don’t mean DARK, I just mean, not sunny. I love that it has been not sunny so much that I have been able to turn on the lights. I think I mentioned it in another post because our Christmas tree looks like a dark blob on my Zoom classes, so the darker the day the better because then the Christmas tree lights show. So just one more picture (I think). All the lights are on in the late afternoon.
(From left to right) We have the tree, the garland, the lighted jar, the lighted cat, and the metal tree.

Here we are, the seventh day of the 12 Days of Christmas. And it is New Year’s Eve. It is going to be 2025 tomorrow. Wow. Here is another picture of our Christmas Tree. The star topper is just plain, but it tends to catch the light and make lovely reflections on the wall. I bought a new one this year (a metal gold star) so this may be the last year for this plastic one. We will see. But this is a delightful shot of it.
Happy New Year!
The shadow and the reflection are more visible than the topper itself.

Nothing more to say about this Friday Photo. That is Nessa.

I had planned on posting the Christmas Tree pictures on Christmas Day, but I forgot until it was too late to do so.
We put it in a different place this year. Just a couple of feet over, but I was thinking the cats would like it better if they didn’t get kicked out of their spot. We normally move their tower. I was also thinking they would appreciate not having to give up the best sun . . . but this whole month has been kind of gray without a lot of sun during their normal sunning hours.
We will not be doing this again. It was too hard to decorate being so close to the entertainment center. Also it was too close to the door because having it out further would have made it feel like it was too much into the room. And its placement just made it show up like a black shadow on my Zoom classes I teach. When the sun wasn’t shining in it was ok because I could turn on the lights and it would show up ok, but if it was sunny it was just a black shape. It was ok, but not good so we will stick with the original spot from now on.
In the second picture you can see the blank spot I mentioned in the last post.
Anyway, this is just me posting a few of the many pictures I take and never normally post.
I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, is having a Happy Chanukah, and is enjoying any and all Holidays that you and your family celebrate.

So, as I said, I am just posting all the pictures I have taken of our Christmas Tree ornaments. Well, actually not ALL, but most. The same ornaments from different angles. Just showing the menagerie we have on our tree.
As you will see in the next post, the Christmas Tree post, there is a large “hole” in the tree. We use that to hang a lot of ornaments. We try to fill up the blank section. This is that section.
The bauble on the left is at least 45 years old.
I think that is the Enterprise.
There is another one of those baubles that are at least 45 years old. In the lower left.
I believe that blue bulb on the right is a part of that collection of old ornaments.
Another star ship, right next to a tea cup and saucer.
“You’re My Lobster”.
Pink bulb part of the old collection. Above the Mach 5. I can also say that those candy canes are at least 20 years old.
The tree is still very green, good tree this year. A bit narrow and wonky with a huge blank section, but it’s ok. What is your favorite Christmas Tree ornament to put on your tree? (Or hang, if you don’t have a tree?) Do you have a favorite you look forward to every year?

Ha, ha, ha, ha! Yes, I asked for the Peloton Ornament set for Christmas. And my husband said, “Why wait until Christmas to open them when you can put them on the tree now?” So he gave them to me early so I can enjoy them on the tree this year – 2024. Yay! They are a nice size. We really put all types of ornaments on our Christmas tree!
This one has a high-five on it. Hilarious. I LOVE IT!

This was from December 3rd. I think it took me at least three more days to finish decorating the Christmas tree. There are just so many Christmas ornaments and not many places to put them. We have been enjoying it.
This is a process picture of the Christmas tree decorating for today’s Friday Photo.

This is our 2024 Christmas Tree. This is the “Lights Only Stage”. There is a cat under it. We put our tree by a window and windows are a place for cats. So it is just easier to have it on a table. That way the cats still have access to the window and we are not having to clean up needles that they may knock off while getting to the window.
Here is the first of many Christmas photos for today’s Friday Photo.
How is your December going so far?

No room, and I am not talking about at the Inn. I have so many Christmas ornaments they don’t always make it onto the tree. Sometimes the tree we get is just too small or it will not support the amount of ornaments I have. This makes me sad. And we really have no space to store any additional ornaments. So we don’t get ornaments. But I saw this sparkly one and wanted it. It is actually quite heavy so I doubt it will ever make it to the Christmas tree. It will probably always be placed somewhere in the house or on the metal ornament tree. It is great. I love it. But I really can’t get any more ornaments.
