Welcome to my blog Viewing My World! I have another blog A La Carte where I share my love of thrifting, tablescapes and other aspects of my life. This blog is to share my love of photography! I hope by starting this blog I will take more photos. Come along with me as I view my world through the lens of my camera.

D is for Done??

Are you DONE yet?  Decorating?  Buying Gifts?  Baking?  Sending Cards?  NO?  Well it's OK because it's only December 1st and we have lots of time...Ha!
As you well know this is the shortest month of all since there is more to do then time to do it! 
What have I DONE? 
Well all the fall decorations are down and put in the basement!  I even have the big tree in the living room up!
  Monday we rearranged the furniture and put the tree in front of the window in the living room...do you see my helper?
Then come the boxes of ornaments for this tree
I got smart last year and marked my totes and bins and boxes and this year is so much easier.
Bringing up a few at a time, decorating and then returning the empties to the basement and bringing up more! 
My helper is all tuckered out, hanging ornaments is a hard job!
Decorated....another D word
A cute Doll ornament from Target last year

A Santa Duckie ornament new this year
My helper is back after his nap...

Now I need to get much more DONE since I want to join in all the fun Christmas parties next week. 
So here is my to DO list:
Send Cards
Decorate Cubbies
Kitchen Tree
Cat Tree
wrap presents
buy more presents
wrap more presents
get presents in mail
bake cookies

OK, OK...enough 
Will I ever get DONE??

I'm joining Alphabe-Thursday with 
Miss Jenny 

Viewing My World,

Linda

  4. Fun post. I'm such a holiday slacker...our house is likely to go undecorated, but no-one seems to care so it's all good. My peops are more interested in the holiday food than the holiday trim... ;)

  5. Not even close to being done here! I recognized a few of those ornaments. I've been collecting Hallmark ornaments since 1994! :)

  10. I am another one who is not DONE, but one who has not started. My Thanksgiving things are still up. I am not DONE with taking them DOWN! Guess I better get to it soon! I think I'll wait until Saturday.

  11. Looks great! I have the same kind of "helper" at my house. The heat vent is near the tree and he naps under there to stay warm, and probably to avoid the kids haha.
