What do you do when you are bummed that Christmas is just about cancelled? Well you DO minimal decorations. I have zero desire to put up a tree so this is the extent of my decorations for this year. (Plus the olive bucket decorations on the table :) )
The hats I blame some gals on Instagram! I was watching them and thought “those are cute and easy” so I did a few then had to come up with a swag as well!
I think it turned out well for a whim and a few hours of effort.
The houses are my cookie jars I bought ages ago and just now put up. Cute with my polish pottery Christmas tree :)
All in all not too shabby for not really being in the spirit of the season.
I did want to go to Rothenburg on details Tauber this Christmas BUT last weekend we had a snaffu with car insurance being cancelled and we couldn’t risk winter driving on wet/snowy roads without insurance so we stayed home and THIS weekend we are back to lockdown and curfews. So in the spirit of being safe we are not bucking orders and staying home. Some are still traveling BUT after cancer and all I just don’t think it’s fair for me to be selfish and possibly keep someone from a necessary treatment just so I can go play. 3 years ago I was scheduling emergency Gall Bladder surgery and really would have died had they put me off. It was gangrenous and rotting so a bit longer would have been super bad. Again. I need to figure out what my body is saying when it talks!!
Anyway. I whine but I’m doing this anyway. Staying home for others. I would say there is always next year but I continue to look for jobs back home, so who knows of there will be a chance next year. Really? Hum.
