We had a really cool fire burning earlier. Wish I had a shot of that. Hey, what is that ugly apperition in the mirror? Ugh! It's hideous.
Wrapping miscellaneous stuff on the stair banister or whatever it's called.
A desk we bought on Black Friday. It was dirt cheap. Spent hours putting it together. Wish I could figure out the drawer. It just won't fit. We bought a second desk (I'll put it together tomorrow) and a PC tower that is kickass. Can't wait to put it all together.
Hammy the Hamster says hello! She wants to join me in a toast to the Holiday Season.
Guess she doesn't like white wine. More for me!
Okay, it's getting late. Time to bust out the Roku, finish that wine, and watch a couple episodes of Cosmos.
How was your Thanksgiving? Were you able to spend tiwm with family and friends? Busting out the Christmas decorations yet?
Sounds like a good Thanksgiving! I like the decorations. :) Good luck with the desk drawer!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you accomplished a lot. We put our tree up too.
ReplyDeleteWe broke out the artificial tree yesterday!
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate putting together furniture? Or is it just me?
Alex, I really do. I get all excited like I'm going to accomplish a major feat, only to end up with something not working quite right.
DeleteChristmas decor later this week for me. Putting those desks together is always fun.
ReplyDeleteNice decorations! Had a nice Thanksgiving and am looking forward to a quiet Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI made it home a few days before Thanksgiving and had to give my husband tons of kudos for having things so well organized that all I had to do was put the turkey in the oven. Of course, he'd invited 20! That was a bit of a surprise.
ReplyDeleteLove that you're already in the Christmas spirit. Hammy seems to be on the wagon, but as you say, more for you. Happy Holidays.
Hammy the Hamster named after Hammy the Squirrel?
ReplyDeleteI like your decorations, Stephen.
Diane, from Over The Hedge, a family favorite.
DeleteWe've switched over to a 3 foot Christmas tree that sits on an end table. Much less temptation for our rambunctious cockier spaniel. The fiber optic lights on the tree look nice, but I don't have any small ornaments to put on it. Your decorations and tree look nice.
ReplyDeleteThose darn desk drawers are always a problem! Hammy's cute ;) Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteHammy is cute! That photo of the desk with the drawer sitting next to it is funny. (I've been there.)
ReplyDeleteAww, Hammy, you're cute.
ReplyDeleteYes, I have my fake tree with clear lights on it. No bulbs yet. Other decorations up.
Hi Stephen .. haven't got there yet .. but I shall do something this year (I think!) .. putting up furniture is a nightmare - but am so pleased you found a cheap desk - looks good too .. love the decorations and bet the kids are happy to see Christmas coming together ...
ReplyDeleteHope the drawer finds a home ... I guess a shelf is almost as good ... Lucky hammy being offered vino ... cheers - Hilary
Hi, Hammy! My sister had a hamster named Hammy when she was a teen. :) I brought out my fake tree on Black Friday but I had to wait until Sunday to decorate it because I needed to buy new lights. haha
ReplyDeleteI'm so late on getting the Christmas decor out! Our entire fam came down with bronchitis and the flu over Thanksgiving break. Lovely. So maybe tonight! I think putting a desk together is a Christmas nightmare. You should write a story about it;-)
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures! All the holiday cheer makes me smile...and the hamster. :)
ReplyDeleteWishing you and yours an excellent season indeed, Stephen!
ReplyDeleteHammy is so cute! Hope you have a great holiday season, and good luck with that desk!
ReplyDeleteYes, we did the whole sheband over the weekend, inside and out. I grew up with an artificial tree and loved it, but my husband grew up with a "real" tree tradition, so that's what we do now. It smells great, but the needles need constant vaccuming. Oh well. Happy Holidays to you and Hammy.
