Gah, my brain is NOT processing how close Thanksgiving and Christmas are. Having so much going on with guests, travel, and work over the past month and a half have left my brain in September. But it’s not September. It’s November 19th. AND THERE IS SNOW ON THE GROUND.

A photo from Thursday’s run… the roads no longer look like this, thankfully

Luckily, we are not hosting anything this year. So I don’t have to decorate the house.

And one of our Christmases in the middle of January, so I can slack there, with gifts. (The other one is on Christmas.)

Hell, I don’t even have to send holiday cards if I don’t want to.

I DON’T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING I DON’T WANT TO!!!

But I do want to do holiday-ish things. I’m not a grinch. I just keep forgetting it’s that time of year.

We went to a tree lighting (and meet Rudolph!) Saturday. I ordered some gifts. I sent our wishlist out. And I got our Christmas Day cat sitter booked. I’m getting there…

And I really do hope I get my sh*t together to do some sort of holiday card with the cats!
