Some mornings when the better course would seem to be just not getting up, even for coffee, what motivates me out of bed is knowing I get to open another day on my Jacquie Lawson Advent calendar. A little sad, but you know, whatever works.
H just went out and bought a whole string of lights just for four replacement bulbs on our "pre-lit" tree--that has two swaths of impenetrable dark. Ooh! One of those just lit up.
Last night's supper was a giant bowl of steamed broccoli dusted with sea salt. Nom! I should do that more often.
I have not done cards. I have not sent the few presents I need to send. We blew off going to the movies this afternoon as neither of us could be arsed to care enough to go. I am overcome with ennui and the urgent need to nap. A brisk walk in the bracing air does not energize, it merely enhances the nappishness. Moar coffee just makes me both jittery *and* nappish, possibly entertaining for the observer. From here, not so much.
Perhaps I should open tomorrow's day on the advent calendar. Or go back and start at Day One again, that might be fun. Or nap. Naaap.

I love stir-fried broccoli and I LOVE sea salt! Napping is always good although I try to avoid because I'm the world's worst insomniac.
*hugs and love* ♥

When we moved west, Christmastime was kind of fraught. I just threw some ornaments in a box, didn't sort through them--it was more than I could bear at the time, and nobody seemed to care about it but me. So we don't have a lot of the memory-filled ornaments that were on our tree every year. We actually bought a fake tree, instead of buying a cut one each year. And H's mom's tradition of three layers of ornaments--one near the trunk, one on the branch, and a tiny one on the branch tip--has also fallen by the wayside. So I'll throw our new, no-angst ornaments on, plus the candle clips and candles, and we'll call it good. It'll be shiny!
Merry Happy to you, love!
